    Something new!
    Many people complained about focusing more about Mecca than journey itself. But this movie is created from Ibne Battuta's journal, So it is acceptable because it was Ibne Batutta's view about Mecca and religion .

    Allover , it was a peaceful medieval journey for me . This movie also expressed about the hardship of the traveller in those days . I always wanted to view a documentary or movie about this legendary traveller , It created a opportunity for know his first step .
