Religion is as old as humans. It was born out of amazement, fear and respect of natural phenomena. Later, the concept of God and various manifestations of divinity crystallised, to be followed by religions built around individual persona. Each faith identified and developed its own sacred centres: locations related to births, deaths and supernatural incidents, myth and mysticism, and a gamut of other spiritual associations. Sacred Sites of the World looks at some of these places, across religions, geographies and polities, man-made structures and creations of nature, misty antiquity and the modern age.
