[[Image:Mecca.jpg|thumb|300px|Mecca at night]] '''Mecca''' (also spelled '''Makkah''') is the holiest city in [[Islam]]. All able-bodied [[Muslim|Muslims]] who can afford to go are required to make a pilgrimage--called the [[Hajj]]--to Mecca at least once in their life. During a Hajj, vast camps of pilgrims spring up, and huge crowds of people from all over the world complete a series of tasks required of all pilgrims.
The Saudi government does not permit non-Muslims to enter, as the entire city is considered a holy site in Islam.
