Hijaz. Is there a particular reason why you choose to focus on this 1 photo out of the several 100's in this thread? :blink:

Are there any guided tour facilities for people who are interested in Prophet Muhammad’s life? Besides going to Makkah and Madina (for hajj umrah purposes) where else can people go to see where God’s beloved went?

I’ve had bunch of tours in Turkey where they have well preserved churches etc but I wouldn’t really pay attention at the details provided by guides because I cannot relate to christian history etc. It would be nice if someone could recommend places in SA?

Also the impression I have of their security situation is that it would be pretty safe to roam around the country due to their strict laws. Is that right? Also people say about people not being hospitable to Pakistani descent people, have people had any issues while travelling around outside Makkah/Medina areas?

Yes, you can visit every single location of importance in KSA and every Islamic heritage site. KSA has more of them than any other country for well known reasons.

Actually there are older churches in KSA (Arabia as a whole too) than in Anatolia (Turkey). Al-Jubail church for instance (1700 + years old). Similarly with synagogue ruins.

Expect for the border region of Yemen which is otherwise incredibly beautiful.

No such thing. 2.5 million Pakistanis live in KSA. Bad and good apples like everywhere else in the world.
