This paper presents a basic multi-layer model of human movement process. A behavior model is used to simulate actions of individual pedestrians while a cellular automata model is used to simulate their small scale movements. A modular platform, which implements the proposed model, is also presented. The platform is being used to simulate different sections of the Muslim holy mosque in Makkah. Preliminary results of the simulation of circular pedestrian movements in a section of the mosque along with the algorithm used are reported.
