  Looking at pilgrimages and journeys that people from the six major world faiths make to sacred places around the world, this book lets you find out where Christians go to visit the sites of miracles, why Hindus travel to bathe in holy rivers and why Jews visit the Wailing Wall. First-hand accounts describe the journeys people make in their own words, while extracts from ancient religious texts show some of the origins of the pilgrimages.
