- Resumen
The main aim is to define the concept of religious tourism in order to understand the complex nature of this phenomenon. Firstly, we analyze the concept of sacred, and especially the relationship with sacred spaces as main areas receiving religious tourism. The concept of the sacred is a universal phenomenon, but it is represented differently according to the religious tradition it belongs, so there is also a local component. The second term studied is tourism. From this point of view, we explore the concept of religious tourism but also other types of tourism in sacred spaces such as pilgrimages, spiritual tourism and cultural tourism. The conclusion reached is a model based on sacred spaces that relates the different motivations of visitors. It identifies some ideal type that let us suggest some management actions in order to avoid conflicts that may arise between the devotees and tourists in sacred spaces.
