Experiencing the charm of the Holy Land, covered with thousands of prayers and worshippers, I felt something that I have never witnessed or expected before, the peaceful fulfillment. Being a practicing Muslim for over several years and offering prayers regularly, this moment was different and beyond expectations.

Before planning to perform this religious practice, I thought that everything was prepared enough but right after entering and witnessing the Kaaba through my eyes, it made me realize that nothing prepared me for the emotional wave that encountered during the Tawaf rituals were being performed.

They even asked me for my choices and preferences regarding the Umrah packages that I would select for my Umrah and offered me accordingly.
