What is Religious tourism?
Religious tourism or Faith tourism is one category of tourism which involves people traveling for religious purposes, it’s often a pilgrimage for spiritual or rituals purposes, but it also can be just sightseeing religious places. However religious tourism is not only for religious people but those who are interested in the history of religions.
why is it important ?
Faith tourism, for a religious person, help them reconnect to their religion. (per example a Muslim living in a predominantly Christian country have less chances to have mosque in his area and other Muslim to talk with. Therefore visiting places where Islam is prominent might be able to create a better connection with their religion.)
what activities can we do ?
A pilgrimage: usually long trip to a significant place to your religion.
A missionary: person sent in areas to promote their religion (example members of the evangelical church, a branch of Christianity)
Sightseeing: activity many people do when traveling, basically visiting places related to a religion for their architectures and arts (Temples, Mosques, Churches…)
