Discover a Step-by-Step Journey Through the Seerah in Makkah
If you’re visiting Makkah and you want more than a traditional stop—this museum experience is designed to bring the Prophetic biography (Seerah) to life. The video from Riadh Travel highlights an International Museum of the Seerah located in the Clock Tower area, presented in a way that feels immersive and personal, as though you’re taking the journey alongside the Prophet ﷺ.
A Warm Welcome and Clear Entry Information
On arrival, visitors are greeted at the entrance and guided into the experience. The video shares the following details:
- Adults: 70 SAR entrance fee

- Families: special family discounts
There are also timed tours. According to the video, tour durations can be around 50–60 minutes, and if your slot hasn’t started yet, your group waits until the next tour begins.
Guided Tours, Themed Zones, and Interactive Learning
Once inside, the experience is structured with guided explanations. The video emphasises that visitors can learn through multiple themed areas, each focusing on a different subject within the Seerah. Your group is accompanied by guides who explain the content and answer questions throughout.
An AI Character You Can Ask
A standout feature mentioned in the video is an AI-powered character called Bashir. As described, you can ask about the Seerah or about the museum and exhibition, and the system provides responses to your questions.
Touchscreen “Touch to Learn” Details
The museum also supports touch interaction. The video notes that you can use screens to discover more details about topics throughout the exhibition—ideal for curious visitors who want deeper context at their own pace.
Step Into Key Moments: From Makkah to the Prophet’s Journey
The video describes the museum’s atmosphere as being designed to feel like you are moving through important locations and moments in sequence.
“The Prophet ﷺ” Zone in Makkah
As you enter one of the early areas, the display is presented as if it places you in the world of the Prophet ﷺ in Makkah. The video specifically mentions:
- Depictions of the ground associated with the Noble Ka‘bah
- References to Ibrahim’s son Isma‘il (as described in the video)
- Visual storytelling about the migration (Hijrah) path
The video also explains that the exhibition is organised with visual guidance: on one side it shows approximate places the Prophet ﷺ passed by, while another side highlights routes and locations associated with the journey.
A Journey Towards Madinah—With an Immersive Presentation
After you pass through the Makkah-related section, the video describes moving into the next stage: Madinah. Here, you are guided into a sequence that aims to recreate the experience of being with the Prophet ﷺ, step by step.
To enhance immersion, the video notes that a laser-style presentation is used to show how the Prophet ﷺ entered—creating a moving visual conclusion to the storyline within the exhibition.
