The mausoleum complex consists of Arafat's burial chamber, a prayer pavilion and landscaped gardens - all situated in a 6,550 sq. m. site. This visit is being touted as "historic" because Modi is the first Indian PM to visit the state of Palestine.

Reiterating India's support for an independent, sovereign and peaceful Palestine, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday asserted that relations between India and Palestine have "stood the test of time". Here Palestine President Mahmood Abbas welcomed him by breaking the protocol.

"I want to thank His Highness Crown Price on behalf of 125 crore Indians for the grand temple which will be constructed", said PM Modi in Abu Dhabi.

Last year, Modi visited France soon after Macron assumed office.

"The three visits put together, I think, reflect the commitment of the Government of India to the cause of Palestine", he added.

Between Oman and India, the relations are age-old and goes back thousands of years.
