Adnan travels in a pilgrim minibus to Iraq's number one tourist attraction - the Holy Shrines of Kerbala. Around 14 million visitors from 60 different countries came here in 2017 for the Shia pilgrimage - Arbaeen - five times as many as attend the Hajj in Mecca, making it one of the largest gatherings anywhere on earth.
