The Japanese astronaut has titled the picture ‘Holy #Mecca #Saudi Arabia’, which shows the buildings, highways, and historical mountains of the city.
While, in the middle of the picture, the bright shining milky view of the Masjid al-Haram looks very attractive. The area around Mina’s tent and Jamrat can also be seen in the image.
The Japanese astronauts returned home from the space station on April 24. They were accompanied by ten other astronauts. They had conducted various experiments on the International Space Station for six months.
People are enjoying the view of the holy city from space on social media.
