Battuta left his native house in Tangier, Morocco, in order to comply with one of the five commandments of the Muslim faith, the pilgrimage to Mecca, and already expand his legal studies in Egypt and Syria. In his journey he covered a distance greater than that of his contemporary Marco Polo, covering the whole west, center, and north of Africa, part of southern and eastern Europe, the Middle East, India, Central Asia, Southeast Asia and China.
