One of the best places to spend time and relax. This is also a landmark to easily reach Masjidul Haram.

Can confirm that thw museum has been closed till further notice. Exhibition has been closed since Covid. There is a gents prayer facility there but in all fairness the ka'ba is a stones throw away from this building so doubt anyone would come out specifically to pray there.

This place is just amazing and breathtaking!!! Not alot of people know about this because it's not as advertised outside but you have to buy the tickets from inside the clock towers and then they guide you up!Every visitors will be provided a small (multi lingual) device which will narrate automatically once you reach every stations in the museum, according to the language selected. A total of 4 floors including the clock floor is opened for visit.. Then head on to the outdoor terrace where you can view the whole city of Makkah. Sunset is very beautiful up here, and you can perform Maghrib prayer at the terrace and follow the Imam inside Kaaba. Unique experience. Well worth the price
