Holy City

Pilgrim's ultimate destination

Holy City, when capitalized and used with "the," typically refers to Jerusalem specifically, especially in Christian contexts: pilgrims journeying to the Holy City.

The capitalization signals a particular place rather than any sacred city in general. (Lowercase holy city refers to sacred cities generally.)
