For two years, me and my family were waiting for this trip. It such a relived to know that we had chance to visit the holy land last January. My wonderful trip started from Medina Al Munawwarah.
Medina is the second holiest city for moslem. It is the destination of Prophet Muhammad's hijrah from Mecca. In this city, the Prophet Muhammad built Nabawi Mosque and did his Dakwah. The first time I stepped in to Nabawi Mosque's gate, I was really amazed. It is like I can not describe with words how beautiful and wonderful this mosque is, besides "Masha Allah".

High pillars stand in every 5 meters. It blooms in to a flower-like every sunrise. The combination of pastel and gold color wall looks so beautiful. I could not stop to look up the ceiling which full of artistic carving. The atmosphere is really calm and peace which make everyone want to stay in Nabawi Mosque for long time.
Not far from Nabawi Mosque, there are another great mosque, Quba Mosque. Quba Mosque is one of the oldest mosque in the world. The Prophet Muhammad put the first stone this mosque as soon as he arrived in Medina. In this mosque, moslem offer 2 raka'ah prayer which rewarded as one time umrah.
Quba Mosque looks elegant with white color dominant. The unique shape around the wall grab people attention. Pine trees grow neatly arranged in the mosque yard. The group of birds fly around as they are never tired to guard the mosque.
Another amazing place in Medina is Jabal Uhud (Mount Uhud). Jabal Uhud is Prophet Muhammad's favorite mountain because Its color is different from other mountain in the world - the combination of red, brown and gold. The fenomenal Uhud War was also taken place here.

(Pardon our selfie face)
Aside from those places, other places was also great but I can not describe it in here because I really had a very very very good time in Medina. So, It will take a long post! (This post is already long).
Mecca Trip will be in Part 2. See you in my next post.
