SK Films / Cosmic Picture / National Geographic
Ibn Battuta is one of the greatest travelers in history, journeying three times further than Marco Polo. "JOURNEY TO MECCA" tells the dramatic story of Ibn Battuta's perilous and awe-inspiring two year journey from Tangiers to Mecca in the 1320's, and includes extraordinary footage of the Hajj as it was experienced in the 14th century through dramatic re-creation.
