At least, faith/religious tourism.

I think the hotel can accommodate wealthy pilgrims and leaders from across the Islamic world.

sixty years ago, upon the invitation of the Russian Red Cross, Princess Ashraf Pahlavi, twin sister of the Shah of Iran, went to see Stalin in order to demand the retrieval of Soviet invading forces from Iran.

He said loudly to his rather stern entourage: "Now here is a brave and true patriot." Pravda, June 28, 1946.
