Experience Al Madinah in Hop On Hop Off Bus Tours

Commonly known as Medina, Al Madinah is the second-holiest city in Islam. It was originally known by the name ‘Yathrib’ and served as a center of trade and commerce in ancient Arabia. The Prophet's Mosque, one of the most sacred places in Islam, was built by Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and is located in Al Madinah. In 625 CE, Al Madinah was the site of the Battle of Uhud, which was fought between the Muslims and the Meccans. Al Madinah's date palms are renowned for producing some of the world's sweetest dates, and the Al-Madina Dates Festival is an annual celebration of this local produce. Al Madinah is home to the Al-Madina Museum, which showcases a collection of artifacts and exhibits related to the city's history and culture. Al Madinah has a long-standing tradition of hospitality, and it is not uncommon for locals to welcome strangers into their homes for meals and conversation.
