Walking
If you are starting from the Masjid al-Haram (the Grand Mosque), exit the mosque from the King Abdul Aziz Gate (Gate 1). Once outside, head straight towards the north along Al-Masjid Al-Haram road. Continue walking for about 10-15 minutes. You will see the Clock Towers towering above the surrounding buildings, located at the end of the road. The towers are directly visible from a distance, and you can follow the crowd of pilgrims heading in that direction.
Walking
From the Abraj Al Bait Towers, which is a prominent shopping complex adjacent to the Clock Towers, simply walk outside and head towards the main entrance of the Clock Towers. The entrance is well-marked and easily accessible from the surrounding areas. It will take you just a few minutes to reach the base of the towers.
Walking
If you are near the Al Haram Plaza, exit the plaza and turn towards the south. Walk straight for approximately 5 minutes. The towering structure of the Clock Towers will be visible, guiding you to the right path as you navigate through the pedestrian walkways.
Use The Clock Towers as your starting point for nearby food, family ideas, nightlife, and more local discoveries.
