People attend a mass celebrated by Pope Benedict XVI at the Fatima's Sanctuary in Fatima on May 13, 2010. Pilgrims flooded the shrine of Fatima, many after spending the night outdoors, to attend a mass celebrated by Pope Benedict XVI at one of Christianity's most holy shrines. Up to 500,000 people were expected to attend the mass on the esplanade at Fatima, where three children claimed to have seen the Virgin Mary in 1917, turning the Portuguese village into one of the biggest draws for the Roman Catholic faithful.
