@beyondmakkah: Most people don’t know this place exists in Makkah! We went in the early hours of the day and we had the whole market to ourselves! Culture, camels and clay pots. Jabal Thawr is Makkah’s newest revival story. It’s been open for only a few months so not everyone has caught on just yet. This place revives the story of the Hijrah in a calm and collected manner. Looking for things to do for kids in Makkah? Add this to the list. Jabal Thawr Cultural district. If you’ve been to its sister district; Hira Cultural District, then you’ll know this place is one of Makkah’s best activities for an afternoon or evening out.
