Medina: The General Presidency for the Affairs of the Two Holy Mosques has completed the replacement of 133,459 LED lighting units in the Prophet’s Mosque and its facilities, ensuring compliance with top international standards. The initiative standardized lighting colors, eliminating previous inconsistencies in the illumination of the minarets, domes, and roof.
According to Saudi Press Agency, the new lighting system enhances the visual identity of the Prophet’s Mosque, accentuating its architectural beauty and improving the nightscape. With a color temperature of 4000K, the lighting creates a calm and reassuring atmosphere, providing a comfortable and safe environment for worshippers and visitors.
The authority has implemented advanced smart lighting systems that regulate light distribution, intensity, and color temperature based on specific needs. The systems offer flexibility and energy efficiency, while also contributing to reducing the attraction of locusts and other insects around the mosque.
Emphasizing sustainability, the new lighting solutions align with environmental standards by minimizing energy consumption without compromising quality or aesthetics. The authority continues to integrate cutting-edge technology in the Two Holy Mosques to enhance the visitor experience and maintain a spiritually enriching environment.
