These days, the roof of the Kaaba is stone covered by smooth cement. It can be seen by anyone who is on the second or third floor of the Holy Mosque.
The black box is called the Kabah, it is in Saudia arabia in Makkah. When we muslims pray we face Kabah..(Quibla). we also got to Makkah to do hajj, it is like a pilgrimage...we go around the Kabah,this is called doing Tawaf.
The kabah is known as the holy house of Allah in Islam
you cannot make a model of the kabah , because it is a religious and holy city.
A Muslim walks round the kabah seven times

The Masjid Al Haram in Mecca which houses the Kabah is geographically located in a valley. Yes it rains over the Masjid Al Haram Mosque in Mecca just like anywhere else. As a side Note - the Kabah located in the center of the mosque - was built by Prophet Ibrahim (Peace be upon him) and geographically represents the center of the earth. Muslims all over the world turn towards the Kabah - align themselves towards the direction of the Kabah when offereing the 5 obligatory prayers in the day.
No city is located there. Kabah is an archaeological site that has remained uninhabited since at least 987 AD.
Prophet Ibrahim
The Kabah is not black, the Kabah is actually dark green. but a elaborately embridreed black cloth is placed on it every year
Muslims dont worship kabah They believe its the house of Allah and therefore Hajj is as if you are going to Allah's hous and praying to him
