Al Shubaikah

Makkah

A hazy look at the Makkah Clock Tower, tallest & largest clock tower in the world (601 meters), under the Arabian sun.

The clock tower stands in the center of a high-rise complex called Abraj Al-Bait. Six smaller high-rises surround it at heights varying and accommodate both residential and hotel uses. True to its name, four colossal clock faces are mounted near the top of the tower. These clocks hold the record for both the largest and highest in the world. At night, the clock faces are illuminated by one million LED lights that transform the tower into a green and white beacon. Writing is inscribed above each clock, with the words “God is the Greatest” on the north and south sides, while the Koran adorns the east and west sides. The spire of the tower features a spherical observation center at its base. The spire is capped with a shining mosaic gold crescent that weighs 35 metric tons. A number of cultural amenities are present in the upper levels of the tower, including a center for lunar observation and a cosmology museum.

Stayed for 7 days and had a great clean room with a view of the new Haram extension . less than 500m walk to the entrance of the new extension and almost at the doorstep for taxis to miqat or elsewhere. Nice ambience and good quality food served . Could be better with more international dishes.
