Sometimes, it is a journey to a sacred place or [[shrine]] of importance to a person's [[belief]]s and [[faith]]. Members of every major religion participate in pilgrimages. A person who makes such a journey is called a [[pilgrim]].

These Hindu pilgrimage sites can be divided into {{transl|hi|dhams}}, {{transl|hi|kumbhs}}, {{transl|hi|jyotirlingas}}, devi sites etc. Every category has got its own significance. It is believed that visiting {{transl|hi|char dhams}} help one to attain salvation. There are four {{transl|hi|dhams}} and twelve {{transl|hi|jyotirlings}} along with 51 {{transl|hi|shakti Peeths}} in India.

For example, many [[Sunni]] [[ulema]] educated in the [[Chishti Order]] were educated in [[Delhi]], where the tomb of [[Nizamuddin Auliya]] is and where his students are well established.
