Tekst achterflap

The Camino de Santiago is only one of many pilgrimage routes that have shaped Europe and beyond for centuries. This book introduces you to a wider network of sacred trails, from the Via Francigena and the pilgrimage paths of the Balkans to routes across Asia and the Americas. Generated with the help of artificial intelligence and reviewed for accuracy, it draws on historical and cultural sources to trace how these journeys developed and why people continue to walk them today. You will learn about the origins of specific routes, the traditions and beliefs connected to them, and the practical and spiritual reasons pilgrims have chosen these paths across different eras and regions. Rather than a travel guide, this book offers context and background, helping you understand pilgrimage as a lasting part of human history and culture, wherever in the world it takes place.
