تحظى مكة المكرمة بالعديد من المواقع التاريخية الإسلامية التي تعد وجهة سياحية للحجاج، أبرزها جبل النور
شمال شرقي مكة المكرمة، ويضم غار حراء، ويبلغ ارتفاعه 642 متراً، ومساحته 5,250 متراً مربعاً، وشبهت قمّته بسنام الجمل.
كما يوجد في مشعر منى مسجد البيعة، ويقع قرب جمرة العقبة، وهو المكان الذي اجتمع فيه الأنصار مع النبي محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم وبايعوه بيعة العقبة، وبناه أبو جعفر المنصور عام 144هـ/761م.
ومن أبرز المواقع بمكة المكرمة جبل ثور، وهو جبل مستدير الشكل، له 10 قمم مدببة، يقع جنوب المسجد الحرام، وكان يسمى جبل أطحل، يبلغ ارتفاعه 755 متراً، ومساحته 10 آلاف متر مربع، ويوجد به الغار الذي لجأ إليه الرسول صلى الله عليه وسلم وأبو بكر الصديق رضي الله عنه.
ومن الجبال التاريخية جبل أبي قبيس، وهو أول جبل وُضع على وجه الأرض، ومنه مدت الجبال، هو أحد الأخشبين، وهو جبل في الجهة الشرقية للمسجد الحرام، ويبلغ ارتفاعه 375 متراً عن سطح البحر.
ويعد جبل أبي قبيس امتداداً لسلسلة جبال خندمة، ويقع بين جبال السد وشعب علي، وهو أقرب الجبال للكعبة. وسمي بذلك لأن رجلاً يقال له «أبو قبيس» أول من قام بالبناء عليه. ويعرف جبل أبي قبيس بأنه أول جبل وضع على الأرض، ويسمى أيضاً بالجبل الأمين بسبب احتفاظه بأمر من الله بالحجر الأسود في بطنه.
ومن الجبال التاريخية في العاصمة المقدسة جبل الكعبة، ويقع شمال غرب المسجد الحرام، في حارة الباب، ويطلق عليه اسم «جبل مقلع الكعبة»، لأنه عندما أعيد بناء الكعبة قُطعت الحجارة من الجبل، واستخدمت في بناء الكعبة.
ولا يغيب جبل السيدة عن اهتمام المسلمين القادمين للحج، ويقع شمال المسجد الحرام في الحجون، ويبعد عنه مسافة كيلومتر، وتوجد في أسفله مقبرة المعلاة التي تضم قبر السيدة خديجة بنت خويلد زوجة الرسول، وسمي بهذا الاسم نسبة لها، ويصل ارتفاعه إلى 400 متر، ويتواجد الجبل الآن في حي الحجون والعتيبية وعلى طريق الجميزة والمعابدة والذهاب لطريق إمارة مكة المكرمة.
ويوجد غرب المسجد الحرام جبل عمر، وسمي بذلك نسبة إلى الصحابي عمر بن الخطاب رضي الله عنه، حيث كان يسكن به في الجاهلية، وقد كان يسمى قبل ذلك بذي أعاصير والعاقر.

Makkah Al-Mukarramah is home to many historical Islamic sites that serve as tourist destinations for pilgrims, the most notable of which is Mount Noor
to the northeast of Makkah Al-Mukarramah, which includes the Cave of Hira. It stands at a height of 642 meters and covers an area of 5,250 square meters, with its summit resembling the hump of a camel.
There is also the Mosque of Al-Bi'ah in the Mina area, located near the Jamrat Al-Aqabah. This is the place where the Ansar gathered with the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and pledged allegiance to him in the Pledge of Aqabah. It was built by Abu Ja'far Al-Mansur in the year 144 AH/761 CE.
Among the prominent sites in Makkah Al-Mukarramah is Mount Thawr, which is round in shape and has 10 pointed peaks. It is located south of the Sacred Mosque, and was previously known as Mount Athhal. It stands at a height of 755 meters and covers an area of 10,000 square meters. It contains the cave where the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and Abu Bakr Al-Siddiq (may Allah be pleased with him) took refuge.
Another historical mountain is Mount Abu Qubays, which is the first mountain placed on the face of the earth, from which other mountains were extended. It is one of the two prominent mountains (Al-Akhshabayn) and is located on the eastern side of the Sacred Mosque, standing 375 meters above sea level.
Mount Abu Qubays is considered an extension of the Khindamah mountain range, situated between the mountains of Al-Sad and Sha'ab Ali, and is the closest mountain to the Kaaba. It was named after a man known as "Abu Qubays," who was the first to build upon it. Mount Abu Qubays is known as the first mountain placed on earth and is also called the "Trustworthy Mountain" because it holds the Black Stone within it as commanded by Allah.
Another historical mountain in the holy capital is the Mountain of the Kaaba, located northwest of the Sacred Mosque, in the neighborhood of Al-Bab. It is referred to as "the Mountain of the Quarry of the Kaaba" because the stones used to rebuild the Kaaba were cut from this mountain.
Mount Al-Sayyida also captures the attention of Muslims coming for Hajj. It is located north of the Sacred Mosque in Al-Hajun, about one kilometer away. At its base lies the Ma'la Cemetery, which contains the grave of Sayyida Khadijah bint Khuwaylid, the wife of the Prophet. It is named after her and reaches a height of 400 meters. The mountain is now situated in the neighborhoods of Al-Hajun and Al-‘Utaibiya, along the roads to Al-Jumayza and Al-Ma'abada, leading to the route of the Emirate of Makkah Al-Mukarramah.
To the west of the Sacred Mosque is Mount Umar, named after the companion Umar ibn Al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him), who lived there during the pre-Islamic era. It was previously known as Dhul-A'asir and Al-Aqir.
