The Clock Towers, officially known as Abraj Al Bait, is a massive government-owned complex of seven skyscraper hotels situated directly adjacent to Masjid al-Haram in Mecca. Dominating the skyline, the central tower features the world's second largest clock face, visible from miles away. The complex includes luxury accommodations, a shopping mall, and observation decks offering panoramic views of the Grand Mosque. Its clock tower is a modern landmark that blends Islamic architectural motifs with contemporary design, and at night it is illuminated with colorful LED displays.
