| Sumario: | Since the seventeenth century religious tourism has been associated with the region of the Altos de Jalisco in Mexico, in particular for the people of San Juan de los Lagos. However, since 2000 devotional sites located in this territorial space have increased due to the canonization of “martyrs Cristeros". During the second decade of the twentieth century once the Mexican Revolution, there was a difference between the Catholic Church and the State, which came to a military confrontation between Catholics and the army. To those who fought in support of the Catholic Church are called Cristeros because many of them wore a crucifix hanging from his chest with Christ when he died shouting, "Long live Christ the King". Since 2000, the Vatican has taken recognition of faith as a defence to the action of several priests and civilians who participated in that conflict to bring to the altar through sanctification and beatification of them. Of the new Catholic saints, some were born in the region of the Altos de Jalisco and others were killed while doing his pastoral work in this region. |
