Mecca
From RationalWiki
Mecca is a city in Saudi Arabia and is considered the most holy site in Islam. When praying each day, a Muslim will try to pray in the direction of Mecca.
Every Muslim must attempt to make at least one pilgrimage Hajj to Mecca in his lifetime unless constrained by poverty or health. Deep in the heart of Mecca is a huge black cloth-covered marble box, called the Kaaba, around which each pilgrim must circle. The primary item in the kaaba is a meteorite. Believers think this meteorite is a stone from Paradise: after all it did fall from the sky.
