Peaceful City Madinah Al Munawwarah
I stayed for ten days at this astonishing and peaceful place called Madinah Al Munawwarah after successfully finished my hajj..A place that locates the tomb of Prophet Muhammad(Peace be upon him) and sahabah..
Madinah Al Munawwarah or Medina is generally considered to be the "cradle of Islamic culture and civilization".The city is considered to be the second-holiest of three key cities in Islamic tradition, with Mecca and Jerusalem serving as the holiest and third-holiest cities respectively.

pullman Zamzam 5 Star hotel in Madina KSA
Pullman Zamzam Madina is located few steps away( Fifth row ) from Al Haram Mosque in the city centre . It is ranked as a luxury 5 star hotel .

It has many room haram view which you enjoy the seen of holy mosque from . concerning the hotel restaurant, it offers delicious open buffet for the three meals . you can choose either to have a room only or room with breakfast unlike most of the hotel which offer room with breakfast only .
One of my favourite Mosque, Quba' Mosque.
My another favourite place in Madinah besides An Nabawi Mosque. I'll never be tired to get back again and again. You can take bus or cab to get here. It takes about 15 minutes from the centre Madeena.
According to Islamic tradition, performing Wudu' ('Ablution') in one's home then offering two Rakaat (Optional) prayers in the Quba Mosque is equal to performing one Umrah. Muhammad used to go there, riding or on foot, every Saturday and offer a two raka'at-prayer.
He advised others to do the same, saying, "Whoever makes ablutions at home and then goes and prays in the Mosque of Quba, he will have a reward like that of an 'Umrah."
Greatest Masjid Nabawi and beautiful
Masjid al-Nabawi (Bahasa Arab: المسجد النبوي al-Masjid al-Nabawīy), disebut "Masjid an Nabawi" atau "Masjid Nabi" ialah masjid yang kedua paling suci bagi umat Islam. Di sini juga terdapat Makam Rasullullah SAW. Masjidil Haram merupakan masjid paling suci dan Masjid al-Aqsa merupakan masjid ketiga paling suci dalam Islam.

SUNSET VIEWS FROM THE LAND OF SANDS
#bestsunset
Sunset views in Saudi Arabia (facts : 95% of its land is covered in sand) are truly captivating.
You can see a clear, beautiful sunset dipping below the horizon, especially from a higher vantage point.
Pic 1 : Mountain of Mercy, Arafat, a place where Adam and Eve were reunited.
Pic 2 : Al Naseem, Mecca.
Pic 3, 4 and 5 : Medina, Saudi Arabia, at the Prophet Mosque.
Many people say that the desert climate in Saudi Arabia makes the sunset viewing more clearer and more enchanting.
