Crveno pokriveno selo Marija Bistrica na obroncima planine Medvednice u Krapinsko-zagorskoj županiji najveće je i najvažnije hodočasničko mjesto u Hrvatskoj. U središtu zanimanja je župna crkva koja ima drveni kip Madone iz 16. stoljeća zvan "Majka Božja Bistrička". Vjeruje se da kip ima čudesne moći jer nije uništen tijekom kasnijih napada Turaka.Iako izvorna župna crkva datira iz 1334. godine, obnovljena je između 1879. i 1882. Bečki je arhitekt cijepio neorenesansni stil na stare temelje, projektirao nove arkade i povećao župni dvor. Također su dodane religiozne slike i skulpture. Tijekom obnove dogodilo se još jedno čudo kada je požar uništio cijelu unutrašnjost crkve, osim oltara i čudotvornog kipa Madone.Svetište u ovom slikovitom selu godišnje privuče do 800.000 posjetitelja, od kojih mnogi postavljaju "Križni put" iza crkve. Ovakav raspored 14 križnih postaja ukrašen je skulpturama hrvatskih umjetnika i vodi do brda Kalvarije.Čak i uz svu pažnju koju prima, najveće slavlje svetišta dogodilo se 1998. godine kada je papa Ivan Pavao II posjetio blaženim hrvatskim nadbiskupom Stepincem.Posjet Mariji Bistrici zanimljiv je i za prikaz tradicionalnih hrvatskih obrta. U želji da potakne turiste da ostanu nakon posjeta svetištu, turistički ured financirao je razvoj zanata kao što su drvene igračke, keramika, medenjaci i svijeće. To je izvrsno mjesto za preuzimanje tradicionalnih hrvatskih suvenira!
