Attractions and Things to do

Medina holds abundant religious, historical, and cultural significance, but that’s not all. You’ll also find plenty of parks, shopping malls, and traditional cuisine to explore. Here are the best places to visit in Medina. 

• Prophet’s Mosque

No trip to Medina would be complete without visiting the Prophet’s Mosque, otherwise known as Al-Masjid an-Nabawi. It was built by Prophet Muhammed in AD 622 and became his final resting place. The Green Dome is an icon of the city, and the stately interiors feature ornate pillars, arches, and courtyards. The scale of the building is truly breathtaking – it’s permanently open, and can accommodate up to one million people. 

• Uhud Mountain 

Located in the north of Medina, 13 km from the center, Mount Uhud holds huge historical significance. It was home to the major Battle of Uhud in 625 AD during the Muslim-Quraysh War. While many visit for its spiritual value, it is also among Saudi’s tallest peaks, making it an excellent place to appreciate the region’s scenic beauty. The rocky terrain makes an ideal trail for those who enjoy hiking. 

• Dar almadina Museum 

Get to know more about the captivating history of Medina and its epic journey from past to present. Nestled in the Knowledge Economic City in what was once the Hejaz railway, you’ll find 2,000 exhibits that tell Medina’s story through models and artifacts. Many of these are dedicated to depicting the Hijrah Road and its historical incidents. If you’re traveling with children, the Madina Media Museum is another great option.

You’ll also find many modern malls to enjoy, with Al Noor Mall being the most popular, alongside Alqarrat and Al Rashid Mega Mall.
