The project represents a qualitative addition to the pilgrims’ accommodation system in Mina by developing a modern housing model for pilgrims aimed at improving the quality of the residential environment for the Guests of Allah, while enhancing the efficient use of space within the holy sites. The project includes 8 modern two-story buildings covering an area of more than 33,000 square meters. During the first phase, 3 buildings were completed and operated at 37% capacity during the last Hajj season of 1446 AH. In the second phase, the project was completed 100% to enable full utilization of the entire project during the Hajj season of 1447 AH.
