Mina - a city of tents Bashny.Net

This small town in Saudi Arabia located in the valley, which is about eight kilometers from Mecca, where millions of pilgrims are constantly coming from all over the world.

However, there comes a time when the pilgrimage, the Hajj, all twenty square kilometers of the valley are covered with tens of thousands of tents. Today, pilgrims are invited to services over 100 thousand tents. All of them are made of polyester and air conditioning. After a fire in 1997, all the tents began to be made of materials that do not burn. In addition, the valley is equipped with a powerful antipozharnaya system. All the rest of the time, Mina is still a tiny town.
