The world's largest form of mass religious tourism takes place at the annual Hajj pilgrimage in Mecca. Religious tourism is one of the earliest forms of tourism. The idea of the religious pilgrimage begins almost with the dawn of humanity. Almost since the dawn of history human beings have traveled to holy sites.Religious tourism has increasingly won in popularity in recent years.

Caenis kopetdagi Mayflies; Middle East; Kluge, 1985 was previously only known from three localities in biogeography; distribution; the Kopet Dag Mountain range, which stretches along the border morphology; taxonomy between Turkmenistan and Iran. We report this species from three further localities at the western border of the Zagros Mountains in southwest Iran, thus considerably expanding its distribution. The nymph of Caenis kopetdagi is re-described, its validity is con- firmed, and modern diagnostic characters are added. Its CO1 sequence is provided and compared with sequences of other spe- cies of Caenis Stephens, 1835 occurring in the Middle East.

Methods: The study adopts an exploratory, descriptive-analytical method, using both quantitative and qualitative methodologies. The population of the study includes female-headed households in villages with a population of more than 30 families in Nishapur and Firuzeh where women are familiar with farming activities and have actively participated in the agricultural production. To determine the sample size, first, through Cochran’s sample size formula, 22 villages were selected out of 357 villages in the population. Then, of the total number of 8810 women in the sample villages, 150 were selected through simple random sampling for questioning and semi-structured Keywords: interviews.
