What is a papal visit?
A papal visit is when the Pope travels to a country, often to meet with local Catholic communities, political leaders, and to conduct religious services. These trips are significant events, drawing large crowds like the 700,000 in Paris, and often carry diplomatic weight, strengthening ties between the Vatican and the host nation.
