The Dhaka Times Desk Saudi Arabia is about to make a landmark decision. Umrah pilgrims can change their visa from Umrah visa to tourist visa if they wish.
Prince Sultan bin Salman, head of Saudi Arabia's Tourism and National Heritage Commission, took this step. From now on, after performing Umrah, if you want, you can travel to various places of interest in Saudi Arabia, go shopping or take medical care.
It should be noted that earlier in Saudi Arabia there were restrictions on Umrah pilgrims traveling to other cities in the country. Experts believe that the ban is being lifted with this announcement.
This is not today, the slogan 'Look at the glory of the Muslim state' was taken 2 years ago. But the last step to implement it was taken last Sunday.
Prince Sultan said at a press conference at the launching ceremony held in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, that this has created an opportunity for those performing Umrah. Through it, they will see everything from the Muslim heritage of Saudi Arabia, various sightseeing spots to the beautiful shopping centers.
