In this analysis, the table shows that people coming from Galicia, is the people who
visit less Santiago de Compostela.
68,7% of the interviewees, most of the visitors, were people belonging to another
cities in Spain. This shows that Santiago de Compostela stays as one of the more
important sacred sites in the culture and the tradition of Spain fomenting the religious
tourism. Just a 21,1% of the interviewees were people from outside Spain. Most of
them coming from Germany (68%) and France (19%).

In this sample, there was not a clear difference among the different. The data
obtained shows that there is not a real relation between the level of studies and
visiting a sacred site, but still a cross-tabulation table will be done, to find out more
data in detail.
