view inside the mall Why was the Abraj Al Bait clock tower built?

Not only does it serve as a landmark for pilgrims on their way to pray but is also considered a symbol of progress for Saudi Arabia’s economy as well as for Islamic culture worldwide. The entire structure is illuminated at night by floodlights that add to its grandeur and beauty. The clock face was designed by Lebanese artist Nadim Karam and consists of four 45-meter (145-foot) diameter clocks which can be seen from miles away. It also has several observation decks that offer breathtaking views over Mecca and the surrounding area. The tower contains a hotel, shopping mall, museum, prayer room and an Islamic research centre.

The impressive clock tower stands at a height of 601 meters (1,975 feet) and is one of the world’s tallest buildings. It is situated at the entrance to the Masjid al-Haram, the holiest site in Islam. The Abraj Al Bait Clock Tower is located in the Holy City of Mecca, Saudi Arabia. How can you go shopping while you are in Makkah instead of praying and taking time out to reflect on the purpose of life? Where is the Abraj Al Bait clock tower located? They say that it is so close to the holy mosque and that the place is sacred and it shouldn’t be given to building a mall. This mall has raised a lot of differences in opinions and minds. Yes, it is next to the holiest place packed with shops, food courts, luxury hotels and restaurants. It is one of the most iconic buildings associated with Makkah and Muslims. I think the final and most important part of my review of Makkah has to be the Tower.
