EDITORS COMMENTS
Bab Ul Ambaraia Gate, Medina, Saudi Arabia: A Glimpse into the Past Amidst Modernization and Change The Bab Ul Ambaraia Gate, located in the ancient city of Medina, Saudi Arabia, stands as a testament to the rich history and cultural heritage of this holy Islamic city. This magnificent gateway, adorned with intricate Ottoman-era carvings and arches, once served as a grand entrance to the old city. However, the story of Bab Ul Ambaraia Gate is not just one of beauty and grandeur. Medina, the second holiest city in Islam, has faced significant destruction under Saudi rule due to the strict Wahhabi interpretation of Islam. Fearful of any reverence given to historical or religious places, many buildings over a thousand years old have been lost, including several gates and structures around the city. The photograph above, taken circa 1910s, captures the Bab Ul Ambaraia Gate in its former glory. The gate, with its ornate carvings and intricate designs, is a reminder of the city's rich history and the architectural marvels that once adorned its streets. Today, the Bab Ul Ambaraia Gate stands as a symbol of the past, amidst the modernization and change that has transformed Medina. While the city continues to attract millions of pilgrims every year, the loss of its physical heritage serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving history and cultural heritage for future generations.
