The administration of Haramain Sharifain has launched a new locker system to enhance convenience and security for pilgrims visiting the Grand Mosque in Makkah and the Prophet’s Mosque in Madinah. This initiative aligns with Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030, which aims to improve the quality of services for visitors.
Pilgrims can apply for locker access from October 17 to November 15, with notifications sent to approved applicants afterward. This program enables visitors to securely store their personal belongings, allowing them to focus on their prayers without worrying about security.
