Definition(s)

  • Pilgrimage is an ancient form of travel in which people choose to leave their familiar surroundings to undertake a journey, often motivated by a spiritual desire or commitment. Through pilgrimage, individuals become part of a communal experience by joining with those taking part in simultaneous journeys or by following in the footsteps of past travelers who have pursued similar paths and destinations.
