Kurma, kurma , kurma

Madina is famous for its kurma Nabi. We are brought to this row of shops selling dates. It is not far from Masjid Nabawi.

My sister buying some kurma at Jabal Rahmah. There are so many types and you tend to get confused. The seller is selling Kurma Nabi @50SR a kilo. Wonder if it is a good bargain?

This is one of tha Dates Plantation. "Ladang Kurma". In the plantation, there is a date store. at the back of the store they served free tea for everyone.

Having Tea while watching the date trees and the busy dates store.

Red Fresh kurma sold at Masjid Quba. Very sweet and fleshy. The one on the below is almost ripe, a bit "kelat" but my brother-in-law likes it that way.
