It will be coming up on a plot in Al Hajlah district, located 300 m from the Grand Mosque and adjacent to the Makkah Clock Tower, said the statement from SPGA.

The land would be provided on lease basis for a 25-year period with the private sector responsible for design, development and operation of the project, it added.
