Abstract(s)
Turismo é um ramo de actividade bastante diversificado. Contudo, apesar da diversidade da tipologia do turismo, alguns têm aspectos comuns e acabam se confundido ou não se conhecendo os seus limites. Por isso, há muita discussão sobre a relação existente entre o Turismo Religioso e o Cultural, sendo que é difícil distinguir a principal motivação do turista que visita esses lugares, se é pela religião ou para conhecer os hábitos e costumes dos povos. A Vila da Namaacha é um destino que anualmente acolhe as peregrinações marianas. Neste contexto, o estudo pretendia saber qual é o perfil do visitante deste destino, se as pessoas deslocam-se à Vila simplesmente movidos por questões religiosas ou se existem outras motivações. Foi privilegiado o inquérito por questionário para recolher os dados junto aos visitantes deste destino. A peregrinação acontece em Maio de cada ano, por essa razão foi escolhido o período de Maio a Julho para recolha de dados. Foi igualmente usada a entrevista não estruturada para as estâncias turísticas com objectivo de colher a sua sensibilidade em relação ao Turismo Religioso neste destino. Os resultados deixaram evidente que a Vila da Namaacha é basicamente um destino religioso. Pois, fora da peregrinação, poucos visitantes chegam a Vila, e estes são maioritariamente adultos dos 14 aos 65 anos de idade.
