Hajj in 1953

Although the Hajj season has passed a couple of months ago, but the atmosphere is still felt by those who had come back from the pilgrimage. It brought back memories when I made the trip to Mekah with Bigboss and Kimchi to perform our Hajj in 2001. Alhamdulillah, it was a beautiful trip and i hope to go again in the near future...insyaAllah.

Below are some rare pictures of the Hajj season in 1953. These were pilgrims making their trip to Mekah...masha'Allah.


Today, most Hajj pilgrims worldwide are very privileged to have better and modern transportations and accommodations such as hotels and inns that provide good services. Even meals provided are much better and healthier than those in the yester-years.
