The Kaaba is the most sacred spot on earth for Muslims. The Kaaba is located in Mecca (or Makkah), in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. It is the most sacred city for Muslims for having Al-Masjid Al-Haram (or the Grand Mosque) that surrounds the Kaaba.
Some people go to the Kaaba to touch the Black stone. Or they go to preform sacred rituals for thier religion.
The Shiva Lingam inside the Kaaba is a symbol of the Hindu god Shiva.
