What are the Top 3 most visited Catholic Shrines in the world?

Fatima, Lourdes and Guadalupe would doubtless be in the top ten. Technically, though (now that I think about it), they may not actually be classified as shrines, but they're extremely popular sites for religious pilgrimages, nonetheless.
