Actually, the original masjid is surrounded with a newley built expansion - in order to absorbe huge numbers of visitors during peak seaons- if you want to reach it you have to go off prayer timings, it is an undiscribed feeling that your are touching same places that Prophet Mohamed (PBUH) would had touched
