Faith tourism increases its own market share in the global tourism mobility and Turkey. Turkey is also one of the most attractive destinations that frequently visited by its religiously oriented position. Turkey, which hosts different civilizations and is the center of cultural and religious interactions, has established itself in international tourism mobility through existing or potential faith tourism destinations. Spiritual spaces, experienced by visitors from different geographies each year, constitute a rich source of data for the world of science. The interest in religious and cultural sites where historical and cultural heritage integrates with the roots of faith has been and continues to be the subject of scientific research within the scope of special interest tourism.

Dissertations has been examined under the headings of 'genre', 'year', 'university', 'institute', 'department', 'title,' 'number of pages', 'regional distribution' and 'research method'. The results have been interpreted by statistical data and it was aimed to contribute to the subsequent scientific studies.
