The zoom buttons are in the map’s top corner. “Layers”, under the map, switches each layer on or off and holds the views and the buttons that move the map, so everything dragging does can be done without it.

The map draws the Rua Al-Madinah zone from the register's own boundary and places no building, because the portal publishes only zone boundaries. Zoom out to see it against the Prophet's Mosque or the whole of Madinah.
Zone boundaries published by the Saudi Properties portal, retrieved 19 Sep 2026, simplified to 10 m for drawing; distances are measured on the full boundary, and the rings are straight-line distance at 1.2 m/s, a floor on the walk. Sacred precinct: approximate, traced from a published boundary map and georeferenced against the road network; not a survey.

The sacred precinct is drawn on this figure as a line, for orientation. No surveyed boundary for the haram of Madinah is published as open data, so this outline is traced from a circulated boundary map and fitted to the road network. It is approximate, to roughly 200 m. Nothing on this site is measured from it, and it decides nothing about ownership: the precinct and the designated zones are two different lines. Where it matters where the boundary runs, the signs on the ground are the authority. Zone boundaries: Saudi Properties portal, retrieved 19 Sep 2026, simplified to 10 m for drawing.
