The General Authority for the Care of the Two Holy Mosques has activated comprehensive plans to welcome worshippers during the last ten days of Ramadan. Initiatives include expanded facilities, sanitation, and crowd management systems, aiming to support a large number of worshipers during this time.
Expanded Facilities and Services
Teams have intensified efforts to sanitize prayer areas, replace carpets, and distribute Zamzam water. Over 20 daily oud-based perfuming rounds ensure a pristine environment. Additionally, 38 inquiry desks and rapid cleaning crews operate across the mosque.
Moreover, to prevent overcrowding, the authority deployed 428 escalators, 28 elevators, and 1,300 speakers. Cooling systems powered by 90,000-ton energy sources maintain comfort. Special prayer zones for the elderly and disabled are also available.
Specialized Care for Visitors
Additionally, a 24/7 childcare center and ritual-assistance carts cater to families. Dedicated Itikaf areas and free luggage storage enhance convenience. Furthermore, a unified transport booking platform streamlines pilgrim movements. Thousands of staff and advanced equipment ensure seamless services. Real-time monitoring systems address concerns promptly, reflecting the authority’s commitment to visitor satisfaction.
Through meticulous planning, the authority aims to deliver a safe, comfortable worship experience during Islam’s holiest nights.
