Why Papal Visits?

Ever since the papal visit was announced I've been asking why do these visits take place. There's a lot of talk about what Benedict is going to say, and I am interested, but none of the comments like this on the FTblog give any evidence that there have been any studies or polls about what good has come from papal gallivanting. They are sure very expensive operations, and I'm all in favor of our Pope getting out and having a good time. We all like to travel, but again I ask what good do these visits do?
