RELIGIOUS TOURISM AND PILGRIMAGE MANAGEMENT

In case studies, researchers in tourism from Europe, China, Australia, and Canada present personal, theoretical, and empirical insights into pilgrimage, religion, and tourism. They explore increasing linkages and interconnections between shared sacred and secular spaces; religious and pilgrimage activity related to ancient, sacred, and emerging tourist destinations; and new forms of pilgrimage, faith systems, and quasi-religious activities.
