The Nature Of Domestic Demand For Authentic Ethnic Experiences In Egypt: Exploring Egyptian Visitors’ Perspectives And Assessments Of Bedouin Cultural Attractions, Ahmed Abdel Latif Abdelfattah Dr., Mary E. Eddy U
The Nature Of Domestic Demand For Authentic Ethnic Experiences In Egypt: Exploring Egyptian Visitors’ Perspectives And Assessments Of Bedouin Cultural Attractions, Ahmed Abdel Latif Abdelfattah Dr., Mary E. Eddy U
The Qualitative Report
Much emphasis in the literature on Bedouin tourism in the Arab world has been given to the demands, perceptions, motivations and experiences of international tourists while domestic demands are not fully understood. Thus, this study challenges the status quo, being one of a few studies in which Egyptians are represented as tourists consuming Egyptian ethnic culture. A mix of qualitative research methods, including 29 semi-structured interviews with domestic visitors, observational data and document analysis, was employed to explore Egyptian visitors’ perspectives and assessments of Bedouin cultural attractions in Egypt. The findings revealed that the concept of experiencing existential authenticity through …

Specific Organizational And Economic Aspects Of The Development Of Pilgrimage Tourism In Uzbekistan, Anvar Xudoyarov Phd
The Light of Islam
In the context of global economic innovation, it is important to study the methodological and practical aspects of this problem from the point of view of identifying trends and characteristics of pilgrimage tourism and improving the organizational and economic mechanism of its effective development. In our country, the government must create all the necessary conditions for the formation and effective functioning of the tourism industry, in particular tourism pilgrimages, also create a regulatory framework and take appropriate measures for the development and development of certain types of tourism. This will stimulate the development of tourism by creating an environment of …

Directions Of National Tourism Development And The Role Of International Experiences, Zokir Sodikov
The Light of Islam
Measures are constantly being taken so as to develop tourism in the country as one of the strategic sectors that will contribute to the diversification of the economy, accelerated development of the regions, job creation, rise in incomes and living standards of the population, and improvementbusiness conditions in the national market. Therefore, liberalization of the visa regime, simplification of the registration procedure for foreigners, provision of privileges and preferences for the development of the tourism sector provide the opportunity to effectively promote the national tourism potential in the domestic and foreign markets.
The prior task is to create favorable conditions …

Two studies examine the effect of cocktail menu description on consumer order intention. Findings show that consumers are more likely to order a cocktail with a greater number of ingredients and the effect is driven by perceptions of beverage complexity and premiumness.

Creative Escapism And The Camino De Santiago, Berenika Seryczyńska
Creative Escapism And The Camino De Santiago, Berenika Seryczyńska
International Journal of Religious Tourism and Pilgrimage
The phenomenon of escapism, extensively analyed in the key mechanism of escape into the world of illusion and imagination in numerous sociological and psychological studies, has not yet been researched from a theological perspective or described in the context of pilgrimage. Nevertheless, the existing studies encourage this type of reflection, indicating that escapism seems to be one of the ways to solve social problems by turning towards religiousness. This is the case for pilgrims on their journey to the tomb of St. James the Apostle in Santiago de Compostela. The studies of pilgrims reveal the escapist motivations behind the decision …
The Way Of Saint James: A Sacred Space?, Adeline Rucquoi
The Way Of Saint James: A Sacred Space?, Adeline Rucquoi
International Journal of Religious Tourism and Pilgrimage
An increasing number of pilgrims make their way each year to the Sanctuary of Santiago de Compostela in Galicia. For many, the Way is almost more important than the goal to be achieved, that is, the tomb of the apostle. Can the space thus covered, sometimes taking weeks or months, be considered ‘sacred’? Undoubtedly, the pilgrimage to Compostela unites space and time. But it adds a particular symbolic dimension to them that makes it the quest for the elsewhere, the other and the absolute. As an image of the ‘pilgrimage of human life’, the whole formed by the apostolic sanctuary …
Sacred And Space In Post-Secular Pilgrimage: The Camino De Santiago And Relational Model Of The Sacred, Piotr Roszak
Sacred And Space In Post-Secular Pilgrimage: The Camino De Santiago And Relational Model Of The Sacred, Piotr Roszak
International Journal of Religious Tourism and Pilgrimage
The aim of this paper is to shed light on the changes in perceiving the sacred which have appeared in the history of pilgrimage. These are linked with different theological approaches to space and subsequent periods of desacralisation, secularization and re-sacralisation. Relying on a modern theology of pilgrimage and research into the philosophy of religion by M. Eliade the paper offers a new interpretation of the message of the Camino de Santiago which overcomes previous reductionisms based on seeing the sacred solely in the destination (the shrine). The relationship with the Camino and the content of pilgrim blessings indicate the …
Pilgrims’ Play On The Santiago Way, Daniel Moulin-Stożek
Pilgrims’ Play On The Santiago Way, Daniel Moulin-Stożek
International Journal of Religious Tourism and Pilgrimage
The popularity of the walking pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela across Northern Spain is often understood as a new kind of spiritual tourism rather than a revival of religious practice. In order to examine this claim, I explore common symbolic and ritual practices on the trail such as rock placing, message making, role playing, and partaking in communal play activities. I elaborate the concept of play to explain these behaviors and consider how they relate to transcendental and sacred meanings. This analysis has important implications for explaining the current popularity of the Camino. In particular, it helps explain how the …

From Private Devotion To Universal Phenomenon: The Way Of Saint James In Spain, The Case Of Navarra, Alban D’Entremont, Jesús Tanco Lerga
International Journal of Religious Tourism and Pilgrimage
This article analyses the process leading to the restoring, revitalisation and consolidation of the Way of Saint James in Spain in recent decades, and its conversion from a merely private and residual pilgrimage route of just several hundred individuals, into an important cultural and spiritual reality having a worldwide impact. The region of Navarra is used to highlight typical places of interest located on the Way of Saint James, and as an example of an experience that can be extrapolated and exported, of the activities, projects, events, decisions and actions undertaken in a huge collaborative effort that has given rise …
Religious Tourism Vs. Sacred Space Experience: Conflict Or Complementary Interaction?, Tomasz Duda, Dariusz Doburzyński
Religious Tourism Vs. Sacred Space Experience: Conflict Or Complementary Interaction?, Tomasz Duda, Dariusz Doburzyński
International Journal of Religious Tourism and Pilgrimage
Contemporary religious tourism, which in many cases is incorrectly identified with the phenomenon of pilgrimage, has developed in recent years as a separate form of migration and activity in the tourism space. However, in the literature of the subject, there is a large variety of problem perspectives, depending on the viewpoint chosen by the given author and the scientific discipline that he/she represents. The most frequently occurring problem is the terminological ambiguity regarding the concepts of ‘religious tourism’ and ‘pilgrimage’. The aim of this article is to draw attention to the diversity of understanding of the sacred space presented by …

Crises In The Aquatic Profession, Robert Keig Stallman
Crises In The Aquatic Profession, Robert Keig Stallman
International Journal of Aquatic Research and Education
In this paper, I propose there are several crises in the aquatic profession and I explain what they are and how to address them using research and my own observations. I use an innovative questioning process to do this by asking you the reader a series of questions after which I explain each. The first crisis has to do with the quantity of trained swimming instructors relative to the population that they serve. In many western European and North American high income countries (HICs), the teacher:student ratios are declining and it is getting increasingly difficult to hire trained swim instructors. …
Back To Beijing: The Future Of The Olympic Games, Jennifer Maynard
Back To Beijing: The Future Of The Olympic Games, Jennifer Maynard
Marriott Student Review
Just four years ago, the IOC made an unprecedented decision to award Beijing with the 2022 Winter Olympic Games bid, making China the first Asian country ever to host both the Summer and Winter Games. What’s more, prior to this second visit to China, the Olympics will have been held in Pyeongchang (2018) and Tokyo (2020). At the same time that this national superpower has the opportunity to capitalize once again on the all eyes-on-China phenomenon, the IOC has the chance to truly go global.

Pilgrimages Through Time And Space. The Case Of Marian Pilgrimages In Greece, Dimitrios Mylonopoulos, Polyxeni Moira, Spyridon Parthenis
Pilgrimages Through Time And Space. The Case Of Marian Pilgrimages In Greece, Dimitrios Mylonopoulos, Polyxeni Moira, Spyridon Parthenis
International Journal of Religious Tourism and Pilgrimage
Since ancient times and throughout history, religious sentiment has been one of the motives for people undertaking pilgrimages, seeking to communicate with the divine in sacred places. Travelling for religious reasons fulfilled a spiritual need and their undertaking was considered to be a redeeming action.
It is indeed difficult to identify any other human activity so widespread in space and so resilient in time as undertaking a pilgrimage to shrines. Since antiquity there has been a firm belief that praying or fulfilling one’s religious tasks is more efficient when it takes place in specific sites: in places where gods or …

Perspectives On The Improvement Of Uzbekistan As A Destination For Multi-Confessional Self-Organised Pilgrims, Bakhtiyor Negmatovich Navruz-Zoda, Nutfillo Ibragimov, Akmal Rakhmanov
International Journal of Religious Tourism and Pilgrimage
By accenting the tourism industry as one of the most valuable sectors for prosperity and appreciating its potential in new social-economic reforms, the administration of the Republic of Uzbekistan has been making visible steps for its development. Particularly religious tourism and pilgrimage are noted as offering opportunities for modernisation in a global world. Carrying a major geographical role in the connection of main trade routes between East and West, the country became the crossroad of civilisation and religious diffusions. Consequently, with new religious tourism and pilgrimage flows: following the earliest dominating beliefs of Zoroastrianism, and its New Age followers; being …
Rediscovering The Walisongo, Indonesia: A Potential New Destination For International Pilgrimage, Pierre Fournié
Rediscovering The Walisongo, Indonesia: A Potential New Destination For International Pilgrimage, Pierre Fournié
International Journal of Religious Tourism and Pilgrimage
The current paper explores the tradition of Walisongo, the nine saints or nine friends of God, that according to tradition initiated the islamisation of Java in the XV and XVI centuries. Largely unknown outside of Indonesia, the Wali Songo pilgrimage remains unfamiliar in the archipelago as well.
Besides allowing a deeper understanding of the roots of Indonesian religious history and of the spread and acceptance of Islam, rediscovering the Wali Songo may help to reintroduce a peaceful image of the Muslim world. In such a way, reactivating the tradition of Wali Songo outside of the country but also inside, may …

Spirituality, Organisational Climate And Religious Tourism, Gilson De Lima Garofalo, Terezinha Filgueiras Pinho, Moacir José Rossetti Júnior
International Journal of Religious Tourism and Pilgrimage
This contribution discusses spirituality in the context of organisations and issues that may arise with regard to those who, in the future will act in the field of religious tourism. In this way, it presents a proposal in terms of motivation, joy, inner peace and deeper understanding. Initially the work adopts the deductive method with descriptive research based on literature addressing the spirituality inherent in those who exercise or will carry out activities in this important tourism segment. A survey was carried out to explore the close connections between spirituality and religiousness, and link this to the behaviour and practices …

Motivations To Visit Jerusalem, Santiago De Compostela And Fatima As Sacred Destinations: A Generational Approach, Carla Silva, José Luís Abrantes, Ram Herstein, Manuel Reis
International Journal of Religious Tourism and Pilgrimage
The present study analyses in a holistic and multidisciplinary approach the motivations that tourists have to visit sacred places. The goal is to find out what are the key motivational factors that determine their choice. It supplies an extensive literature review focusing on the concept of motivations, which allows us to identify the main reasons that draw people to sites.
The fieldwork of this study includes pilgrims and or tourists at three sacred sites: Fátima (Portugal), Santiago de Compostela (Spain) and Jerusalem (Israel). Fieldwork includes surveys of 633 tourists from different religions visiting these symbolic places who belong to generations …
Places And Religious Bands: Explorations In Spiritual Tourism, Antonietta Ivona, Donatella Privitera
Places And Religious Bands: Explorations In Spiritual Tourism, Antonietta Ivona, Donatella Privitera
International Journal of Religious Tourism and Pilgrimage
The musical aspect of religious tourism is currently amongst the less investigated themes. A first survey suggests that although it does not appear to be the main motivation for religious travel, it is a valued component of the experience. The aim of this study is to explore how sounds operate to forge social and spiritual identifications on the principles of Lefebvre’s rhythm analysis (2004).
This paper contributes to the emerging field of experiential tourism research by confirming that religious experiences are not only interior but also involve sensory experiences. It follows that tourists’ sensory experiences should be a key component …
Stakeholder Perceptions Of Religious Tourism And Local Development: Evidence From Lamego (Portugal) Historic Town, Ana Paula Rodrigues, Isabel Vieira, Luciano Ferreira, Rui Madeira
Stakeholder Perceptions Of Religious Tourism And Local Development: Evidence From Lamego (Portugal) Historic Town, Ana Paula Rodrigues, Isabel Vieira, Luciano Ferreira, Rui Madeira
International Journal of Religious Tourism and Pilgrimage
The purpose of this study is to explore the views of different stakeholder groups (visitors, residents and local agents - heritage managers, tour operators, local authorities, Priests and head of the Church, directors of institutions linked to tourism) about the relationship between religion and tourism in a historic town setting. The main purpose is to examine the opinions/views/perceptions of different stakeholder groups about religious tourism and local development.
A mixed methodological (quantitative and qualitative) approach was used in order to analyse the perceptions and opinions of three stakeholders groups. The opinions of visitors (120) and residents (150) were analysed using …
Pilgrimage And Its Perception In A Local Religious Community, Béla Árvavölgyi, Judit Sági
Pilgrimage And Its Perception In A Local Religious Community, Béla Árvavölgyi, Judit Sági
International Journal of Religious Tourism and Pilgrimage
In this paper, the authors aim at examining how pilgrimage might positively change the personal life of the participating individual, and the life of the releasing community. In the authors’ perception, where the individual is a member of a local religious community, after returning home he or she reports about his or her experiences to other members of the community; thus one member is positively influencing the community as a whole. This research study is focusing on Christian pilgrimage, however, due to the common nature of pilgrimage in different kind of religions the authors believe that the results of this …
Cultural Routes Crossing Portugal: History And Traditions, Odete Paiva, Cláudia Seabra, José Luís Abrantes
Cultural Routes Crossing Portugal: History And Traditions, Odete Paiva, Cláudia Seabra, José Luís Abrantes
International Journal of Religious Tourism and Pilgrimage
Cultural routes across different regions create real opportunities to improve tourism dynamics, offering tourists more valuable experiences bringing benefits to the entire tourism value chain and to all tourism-related sectors (Perdomo, 2015). This study analyses the potential of a cultural and tourist product based on two routes in the Centre of Portugal, one following the path laid out by the 3rd French Invasion and another following the Historical National Road Nº2. The main goal is to investigate the attractiveness and market potential for the two routes specifically in the domestic market. Based on the results of a questionnaire applied to …
Creating And Contesting Latter-Day Saint Pilgrimage To Nauvoo, Illinois, Scott Esplin
Creating And Contesting Latter-Day Saint Pilgrimage To Nauvoo, Illinois, Scott Esplin
International Journal of Religious Tourism and Pilgrimage
Members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (frequently referred to as Latter-day Saints or Mormons) share with other faiths a desire to celebrate sites significant to their founding. By memorialising religious sacred space, the Church of Jesus Christ has created a desire among many of its more than sixteen million members to retrace the steps of their early faith leaders as pilgrims. As with other religious sites around the world, Latter-day Saint pilgrimage destinations have also become scenes of contestation. Churches that divided from the original movement offer rival interpretations of the its history and beliefs, leading …
Pilgrimage And Ancestors: The Importance Of Return, Jörgen Hellman
Pilgrimage And Ancestors: The Importance Of Return, Jörgen Hellman
International Journal of Religious Tourism and Pilgrimage
Drawing on ethnographic material from pilgrimages on West Java I argue that understandings of pilgrimage will benefit from including the return home in order to fully appreciate the meaning it holds for pilgrims. If we include into the study an extensive period after coming home, it facilitates situating the practice in a specific socio-cultural context and helps to understand how a pilgrimage partakes in these settings rather than being a ‘ “one off” transient and extraordinary’ event (Reader 2005:249). The meaning of pilgrimage described in the paper is formed by deep seated cultural notions about ancestors and descent. In the …
