A hazy look at the Makkah Clock Tower, tallest & largest clock tower in the world (601 meters), under the Arabian sun.

The clock tower stands in the center of a high-rise complex called Abraj Al-Bait. Six smaller high-rises surround it at heights varying and accommodate both residential and hotel uses. True to its name, four colossal clock faces are mounted near the top of the tower. These clocks hold the record for both the largest and highest in the world. At night, the clock faces are illuminated by one million LED lights that transform the tower into a green and white beacon. Writing is inscribed above each clock, with the words “God is the Greatest” on the north and south sides, while the Koran adorns the east and west sides. The spire of the tower features a spherical observation center at its base. The spire is capped with a shining mosaic gold crescent that weighs 35 metric tons. A number of cultural amenities are present in the upper levels of the tower, including a center for lunar observation and a cosmology museum.

10/10 Excellent

"The Kaaba view rooms were spectacular. Reception staff were warm and welcoming. Breakfast was the same almost all week, not really expecting to get curry chicken and mini hotdogs in Makkah.. should be more authentic arabian options. Cannot make local calls to even the laundry places in the Clock Tower, was told by operator to go to the reception, pay for the call and make the call from there, very inconvenient. Room were very clean. Overall loved the stay!"
