★ ★ ★ ★ ★ A great place for learning about the ancient history of Makkah and its adjoining areas. The museum contains archaeological artifacts from prehistoric times including rock inscriptions, ancient stone tools and cultural items. The museum also showcases picturea of historical importance via various banners describing important historical events.
This museum, however, focusses mainly on the exhibition of historical items in general not about Kaaba etc specifically.
Takes about an hour and half to see.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Mecca Museum also known as Al-Haramin Museum is an important place to visiting during your visiting in Makkah. It is only 10-15 Minutes driving away from Haram Sherif.
It has got various collection of the Islamic cultural and historical dimensions of the two Holy Mosques.
The Museum has got 7 Halls. So many valuable information can be gathered. You may need more than to gather more information should you really interested to learn and find the facts.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Visiting such places boosts your Iman.
Very informative place. Very well managed and guided.
When we visited last time on 24 Dec 2018 it was "ladies only" day.
I think they have now separated days for men and women. Better to check before visiting.
First confirm the address of museum on google map because first it misguided us then we had to relocate but it was worth visiting although only my wife went in there with my son and his pram.
There are separate washrooms for men and women.
They even had zamzam to drink for free.
Parking space as well.
Safe and clean environment.
Female staff who guides female visitors in different languages.
