The Hajj is a five-day annual pilgrimage undertaken by Muslims and is the world’s largest annual gathering of people.



The pilgrimage is the fifth pillar of Islam that every Muslim is expected to do at least once in their lifetime providing they are well enough and can afford to go.



The footage shows sweeping vistas of mountainous Mecca and thousands of pilgrims gathering in the holy city. The video also features the Al Mashaaer Al Mugaddassah Metro line which transports Hajj pilgrims to the sacred site.
