Islam is a religion based on principles and rules that are set on every Muslim of the world.This pilgrimage of travelling to Mecca is called the Hajj pilgrimage or the Umrah. Though both the pious pilgrimages mean paying respect in person to the Holy Almighty at the Holy city, there is a difference of time between the two.
Umrah involves performing Tawaf of K'abah and Saee - running between the holy hillocks that are Marwa and Safa. Tawaf means to make a circuit (7 circuits, precisely) and K'abah is a cubic structure that is constructed with stone and mofar at the holy city of Mecca. The K'afah is covered wth black cloth and is decorated with gold and has the verses of Holy Quran on it.
Hajj has to be completed at least once in a lifetime of a Muslim (only if he is in the condition to afford it). Hajj is obligatory (fard) in a Muslim's life and both the journeys are to be performed only in the state of Ihram - the state of being clothed in only two clothes that are not sewed together.
