King Fahd Glorious Quran Printing Complex

Reviewed By MohaNYC

Seeing this place is amazing. We talked to a taxi driver. Made a deal with him for half a day. In the deal, he would take us to few important places. Quran Printing Complex is one of the places. We planned to arrive by 10 am. We were told that they close early. Its a nicely organized shot trip. We were able to visit for a short period of time from 2nd floor (I can say gallery). At the end of the visit approximately 10 minutes, visitors were to out. On the way out, you can pick a free copy of the Quran. Important: They have the Quran in few language including Farsi, Urdu and Bengali etc. If you would rather like one of these, please ask them for your choice of language. These comes with Arabic with translation in of these language. They did not have it in English.

Masjid Al Ghamamah

Reviewed By AFAK25 - Jeddah, Saudi Arabia

Historical sites in Medina, Masjid Al Ghamamah and Masjid Saidina Abu Bakar are located near to each other. Sometimes people confuse the two. To differentiate them, Masjid Al Ghamamah has many domes while Masjid Saidina Abu Bakar is much smaller and has only one dome. The area is located southwest of the Prophet's Mosque and a short walk away from the Holy Quran exhibition. The area surrounding the two masjids has been into a park with benches. Good for picnicking with family.

Old Town of AlUla

Once a place of nearly 900 homes, 400 shops and 5 town squares, much of the Old Town of AlUla’s mudbrick and stone architecture still survives today. A citadel perched on a prominent outcrop along the eastern edge is still accessible via a restored staircase. Those interested in history will be delighted to discover that this site was occupied within recent memory, offering unique opportunities to gather and share oral histories encapsulating a disappearing way of life.

Firstly- went for work so got a chance to see the palce from above. The place will be ready and open to public soon. It is stunning- it is always wonderful to see history and the past being preserved...the houses are great from above and there are toilet facilities and shops below.
