摘要:The purpose of this paper is to determine the changes that the development of religious tourism, as a special type of tourism that has significantly affected local and regional development, has brought to Međugorje. This research paper is based on the analysis of secondary data of the Međugorje parish archives, the Čitluk municipality and regional planning documents. The paper discusses the changes in physical appearance and spatial structure and the characteristics of construction in Međugorje under the influence of religious tourism. Given the achieved development of religious tourism, based on the apparition as a pull factor, there is a need to systematically approach urban planning and urban solutions. As spatial features are not the only factors supporting the development of religious tourism in the area, other spatial elements affecting the quality of this destination should also be considered. This primarily refers to potential users of tourism and religious (spiritual) elements in this space, but also to the quality of life of the local population.
