sacred place
Hallowed site revered
A sacred place is a location considered holy or spiritually significant—a site where the divine is believed to be present or accessible.
Churches, temples, mosques, and shrines are sacred places by design.
Natural features may also be sacred: The mountain is a sacred place to the tribe.
Sacred places often have rules about behavior, dress, or who may enter.
