Sites near to Nitte

Miracles are often connected with special sacred places. Normally these are natural shrines, such as sacred groves, or temples and sanctuaries in which gods or spirits live or have manifested themselves or in which their statues, symbols, holy objects, or relics are enshrined. Holy places, such as Mecca and the Kaʿbah in Islam or the Buddhist stupas, are centres of pilgrimages and veneration because of their religious significance and the religious values that they symbolize and not necessarily because miracles are wrought there, yet popular devotion associates miracles with many of these holy sites.
