Travelling for Pilgrimage in the month of October
A visit to a pilgrim is an evolving journey in itself. People from around the globe of all faiths make a pilgrimage, often to a shrine or place of significance, to experience spiritual enlightenment and understanding of the universe. A pilgrimage is far from exclusively for religious inducement. People make pilgrimages to understand the gravitas of that place, self-discovery, to embrace the ancient art and architecture, meet new people and make memories, and to enjoy local ambience and food.
October is the time when the world is gearing up for the festivities and you are looking for options to make your festival season all the more fun. So, why not go off-beat with a trip to some isolated island or mountains to feel the freshness of the approaching winters (or summers, depending on the hemisphere).
