The box is called the Kaaba, the building predates Islam, and, according to Islamic tradition, the first building at the site was built by Abraham. In modern times, entry to the Kaaba's interior is generally not permitted, however, the building is opened twice a year for a ceremony known as "the cleaning of the Kaaba."
The entrance is a door set 2 m above the ground on the north-eastern wall of the Kaaba. Inside the Kaaba, there is a marble and limestone floor. The interior walls are clad with marble halfway to the roof; tablets with Qur'anic inscriptions are inset in the marble. The top part of the walls are covered with a green cloth decorated with gold embroidered Qur'anic verses. Caretakers perfume the marble cladding with scented oil, the same oil used to anoint the Black Stone outside.

The Holy City for Muslims is Mecca. Why? Because Mecca contains the Ka'ab, which the Muslims pray toward and should walk seven times around it once in their lifetime. For History, I made a model of the Ka'ab out of cardboard. Such a fascinating box.
