Places to Visit:

Jeddah:

Jeddah is Saudi Arabia's second most populous city and one of the country's most influential cities. For centuries, pilgrims and traders travelling to sacred Mecca and Medina have used Jeddah as their gateway to the Arabian Peninsula. With its cosmopolitan culture, world-class cuisine, and commercial venues, the city is now a modern tourism destination.

Makkah:

Side trips and excursions can help you make the most of your spiritual journey to Makkah. Your tour operator will take you to pilgrimage sites such as Mina and Arafat. Another must-see city is Madinah, the Prophet Mohamed's (PBUH) burial place and home to the magnificent Al Masjid An Nabawi – the Prophet's Mosque.

Retrace the steps of Allah's Messenger or visit places that will broaden your understanding of Islam. Discover all the things to see in Makkah and its many remarkable places with a group or on your own, whether you have an extra hour or a full day in the Kingdom.

The town of Makkah itself is solely available to Muslims. Each year, it bears witness to the Hajj pilgrimage, a spiritual obligation that should be carried out through each capable Muslim at least as soon as in their lifetime, and which attracts thousands and thousands every year. Holy websites in the town encompass the sacred Ka’aba, positioned in the coronary heart of the Masjid al-Haram, or Grand Mosque, whilst the circling mountains residence the ancient Cave of Thawr, the place the Prophet sought refuge from the Quraysh tribe, and the revered Jabal Rahmah, the place he delivered his ultimate sermon.

Medina:

Medina, the world's second holiest city after Mecca, is worth a visit for its religious and historical significance. One of the places people should visit is Masjid-e-Nabvi, which is where Prophet Muhammad was buried. Muslims from all over the world come to Medina to perform Hajj and Umrah. There is much more to Medina than meets the eye, including mosques, old lanes, craft shops, fresh dates, food, and markets.
