Steemit Engagement Challenge | S7W4 | My Favorite Place To Visit

Greetings Everyone, This is SHOHANA From #Bangladesh

Today I'm going to talk about the place where I want to visit since my childhood. Its a great blessing to born in a Muslim family and I feel myself really very blessed. But sometimes I feel if I could born in the place where there my prophet was born and where the Holy book Quran was sent by Almighty Allah. I'm talking about Mecca in Saudi Arabia

We Muslim desire to perform Hajj at least once in a lifetime. And Mecca is the desired place where we can visit and perform Hajj. But it cost money, people who can afford the cost can visit there. Some lucky people get sponsorship from rich people who help them performing hajj but this is very rare.

Mecca can be consider as my travel destination too. Its my cherished dream that someday I'll be able to earn more money to visit there with the aim of performing hajj, beside that I could offer sponsorship to pious Muslim ummah to perform hajj.

Please write about your favourite place to visit.

This theme of contest remind me about my travel destination once again and I've motives to go there too. Since childhood days I'm just seeing pictures and video of Mecca. The city is a holy place where from my prophet and Islamic schoolers belong. This is the dream of many Muslim ummah and count me one of them.

Why do you like it? The main feature that make it more attractive to you??

I like it because this is the holiest place for we Muslims and I personally love this place because of the beauty of Holy Ka'ba sharif where people gather for performing prayers and kiss the holy black stone there. For me the most attractive part of its heart is the cube-shaped Ka'ba which is also known as the House of Almighty Allah

Have you visited that place before? or want to visit.? When did /will you visit that place??

Unluckily not yet visited but wish to before getting old or before my death of body. This is my aim to perform Hajj at least once in a lifetime and I will keep working to make enough fund for this favorite place to visit in a life.

What are the special features of that place?

This is the holiest city for us. Mecca for us the spiritual center of Islam because it was the place where the holy Prophet Mohammed (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) is said to have received his first revelations in the early 7th century. At its heart is the cube-shaped Ka'ba, built by Abraham and his son Ishmael, according to the Quran. Source

Share the local cuisine of that place.

I've heard that Shafout, Mutabbaq and Areeka (a kind of dessert) these are kind of traditional food there in Mecca and Medina. Shafout is made with flatbread that is soaked in tangy hot sauce and garnished with lettuce, tomato, and cucumber and Mutabbaq is a kind of paratha (oily bread) with minced meat. Areeka is a kind of dessert that make each meal complete. I would love to taste them there in Mecca. I may search in internet for best restaurant reviews there before visiting there.

You can share the expenses of that visit.

A Bangladeshi pilgrim will have to spend Tk 6.83 lakh (Bangladeshi taka) to perform hajj this year under government management. The cost is approximately equivalent to 28438.64 steem or 6306 USD. Today I may can't afford the money but one day I'll be able to spend the money to visit there.

Tell us all the information that you have about your experience. You can guide us on our next trip to that place.

Unfortunately I didn't visited there yet so I can't share my experience right now but I'm hopeful for future when I'll be able to visit there and write about my experiences and review about my most favorite place ever.

Thanks For Reading
