The global faith based tourism market is projected to reach a valuation of US$ 13.7 Bn in 2022. Sales are projected to increase at a 10.4% CAGR, with the market size reaching US$ 37 Bn by 2032.
The travel and tourism sector benefits from faith based tourism. Increasing preference among tourists to explore untouched heritage sites across the globe is expected to drive the market over the forecast period.
Consumers are getting inclined towards religious locations and heritage sites for a variety of reasons such as to reflect on their faith, and to better understand and respect a religion.
Religious tourism is becoming increasingly important to governments around the world, not just as a source of revenue but also as a tool for encouraging social harmony. For example, in the Buddhist Circuit, IRCTC (Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation) offers a complete package that includes transportation, sightseeing, and lodging. Aside from that, airports have been built in Bodh Gaya, allowing tourists from Southeast Asian countries, who make up a substantial share of the clientele, to go directly there.

According to the United Nations World Tourism Organization, international tourist arrivals (overnight visitors) decreased by 70% from January to August 2020 compared to the same time last year (UNWTO).
From January to August 2020, Asia-Pacific, which was the first to be impacted by the epidemic, saw a 79% decline in arrivals. While international travel demand continues to decline, regional tourism in several significant economies, such as China and Russia, is on the rise.
