PROJECTS / AL HARAM MOSQUE

Al Haram Mosque Mecca

The number of pilgrims during the annual Muslim Hajj to Medina (Madinah) and Mecca (Makkah), the holiest sites in Islam, is rapidly increasing. This surge demands significant urbanistic and architectural changes. The "King Abdallah Grand Expansion Project" of the Al Haram Mosque in Mecca, the largest mosque in the world, aims to expand its capacity to accommodate 1,500,000 pilgrims. Currently, maintenance and rescue services are poorly organized, limiting the number of people able to perform Tawaf (circling) and Sa’ee (ritual walk). Additionally, luggage and sanitary services are insufficient or hard to acces
