Rwanda Focuses on Religious Tourism To Boost Travel Sales

As Rwanda looks forward to celebrating the 40^th anniversary of the Marian Apparitions on 28 November 2021, it is preparing for an influx of tourists for this religious travel purpose. The event will take place in Kibeho area which is located in the southern province of Rwanda.

In Kibeho village, the first apparitions were reported by three teenage girls on the 28^th of November 1981 where they said to have seen images of the Virgin Mary, mother of Jesus. This appeared again and again until 1989 causing the Roman Catholic Church at Vatican to recognize the apparitions hence declaring its authenticity in 2001. Today, the site is a place of pilgrimage and attracts huge numbers of tourists.

According to Clarence Fernandes the chairman of Rwanda renaissance, several groups of religious tourists have been taken to the holy land of Kibeho over the past years. He added that the largest group had about forty-six pilgrims who all had an amazing spiritual experience.
