Isn't this the point, or at the very least part of it, that they are man-made structures which differentiate the area they deliniate by making it special and different to the ordinariness outside. ( I'll not resurrect the Sacred Space debate!)
The ancient places alter your perceptions and experiences, but none of us will have the same experience as another person whilst in the same place. What you see and feel is different to what I see and feel, you are expounding your own Truth and me, mine, and everyone else, theirs. All are equally valid.
