Where it is
14.6 km from the Grand Mosque, too far to walk
Measured in a straight line from the zone's nearest edge on the regulator's boundary. Being inside a designated zone says who may own here and nothing about how close it is. How the Haram Minute is worked out
The Al-Manar zone What may be built there, its area and its boundary on the register.
Makkah, north up, with 12 designated zones drawn. You can zoom in. The table below the figure lists every zone.
Interactive map. With the map focused: arrow keys move it, plus and minus zoom, zero returns to the opening view. 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 Al-Manar 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 Grand Mosque or the whole of Makkah.
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.

29 signposted crossings of the Makkah sacred precinct are drawn on this figure, 5.5 km to 21.3 km from the Grand Mosque. The sacred precinct is drawn on this figure as a line, for orientation. It runs through the 29 signposted crossings, taken in bearing order from the Grand Mosque; the signs are real objects and the line between them is ours. 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.
