RELIGIOUS TOURISM

SUMMARY

Religious tourism is a phenomenon that extends internationally. Religious tourism is a form of tourism that has evolved for centuries and still retains some features, regarding the actual pilgrimage, but which has evolved enormously. Religious tourists have become more demanding about travel requirements, but also willing to spend larger amounts of money. Religious organizations, those who manage the holy places, cannot isolate themselves from the rest of the world; communities need money from religious tourism, and religious organizations need community support.
