Muslim Tourist Destination

Muslim tourists are among those who choose to travel and make pilgrimages to the city of Medina, KSA. What is unique about them is that they shop for souvenirs for family and charity in their country. Sometimes they forget the baggage load of the plane so many are left behind and pay the expensive baggage.


Circling the city of Medina

I'd love to be able to use the Al Madinah tour bus provided by the city government of Medina. Ticket prices are affordable and also can be categorized costly little that is 24 hours ticketing period with price 80 Saudi Riyal.

Different travelers

Diversity becomes the identity of tourists visiting the city of Medina, KSA. The pilgrims almost every home from prayers pilgrims in the mosque Nabawi always dig a few souvenirs and small objects. Mothers who keep picking things from one store to another, they hunt for bracelets, rings, children's toys.

The date palms are the obligatory souvenirs that must be taken home by the pilgrims, the Honeymoon dates and Ajwaf dates are an attractive option and must be bought by Medina city pilgrims.


Tasting dates

When we want to buy dates, ask to taste the dates, this is an important and even filling by tasting almost throughout the store and do not forget to say "kosher". Because the word "halal" is a powerful word to allow us to taste dates or other items.


Madina Shop

Shops in the city of Medina are more orderly and orderly than the stores in the city of Mecca. may be geographical influences. Because the city of Mecca is in the hills and hillsides, while the city of Medina is in a flat valley.

Strategy to buy dates

When buying dates, taste the dates first, when the dates are a bit hard and dry, it indicates the dates are old and not good, except dates that are specifically dried like a stone. Then look at the thin skin, whether still good or not.

Ability to choose goods

Choosing good quality goods to be tricks and special skills for ourselves, Never directly buy into the first way and method of buying goods. Counterfeit goods are common.

Mothers go in and out of the store looking for items while asking for prices, so sellers get annoyed with the whims of mothers who have to keep answering questions without wanting to buy.

Most sellers are people from Yemen, they are used as a seller of shops. The financiers and shop owners trust the Yemeni people to be their shop sellers.

Ask about the price of the item

I personally always compare prices and ask prices, then sometimes annoy the sellers indifferently after asking price.

If we are able to speak Arabic, then they are reluctant and do not dare to vary with the price of goods. Because they think we are smarter than them.

Features of Dates

Dates are a fruit that is known to never decay unless it is eaten by termites and the like and dates mature even more delicious it tastes. Then store the dates at a good temperature and control. In Arabia, grocery dates are kept in the refrigerator so they are more resistant and good.
