Imagine that you are standing in a place where the whole world seems small. Strong winds are blowing everywhere, clouds are floating below, and when you look down, you see the holiest place in the world. A sight that automatically stops the heart after seeing it. These days, a similar video and some photos are becoming increasingly viral on social media. This video was filmed from the top of the famous clock tower in Mecca. The view of the Grand Mosque and the Holy Kaaba from the top of the huge moon, that is, the crescent moon at the top of the tower, seems nothing less than a dream.
Seeing the Holy Kaaba from a height of 600 meters
The video that went viral shows a scene captured from the top of Mecca’s famous clock tower. Standing near the golden moon at the top of the tower, the camera is pointed downward. As the camera pans down, the entire Grand Mosque appears as a large circle with the Holy Kaaba in the middle. Thousands of pilgrims appear everywhere in white clothes, as if white pearls were scattered on a black dress.

He stops breathing just by looking at him
People watching this video say that they have never seen such a beautiful sight before. Seeing the Kaaba and the Grand Mosque from this height gives a different feeling. The video shows strong winds blowing at the top and the entire harem area is clearly visible below. Many people say that this scene is soothing to the heart.
An amazing feat of engineering and courage
Creating this video was not an easy task either. The place from which filming was taken is located at an altitude of more than 600 meters from the ground. Standing at that height, putting the camera down and shooting down is considered great courage in itself. Experts say that the air pressure at this altitude is also very high. However, the clear and stable scene shown in the video is truly amazing.
The tallest clock tower in the world
This clock tower in Mecca is considered the tallest clock building in the world. The huge clocks installed in its four directions can be seen even from several kilometers away. But the most distinctive part of this tower is its peak, where there is a huge gold-plated moon. Inside this moon there are also places for performing prayers and facilities related to research.
