Why Makkah’s Grand Mosque marble feels cool even in peak summer? Secret behind Kaaba’s chill
Barefoot pilgrims at the Kaaba enjoy cool marble even in extreme heat, a marvel of engineering. Thassos marble, known for its high solar reflectance and thermal conductivity, disperses heat efficiently. Combined with insulating layers and architectural airflow, this sophisticated system ensures comfortable walking surfaces in one of the world's hottest locations, a testament to thoughtful design.
