Journey through Japan’s spiritual heartland along the ancient pilgrimage routes of the Kumano Kodo
The Kumano Kodo refers to a set of four pilgrimage routes that lead to the Kumano Sanzan, or the three grand shrines of the Kumano sect of Shinto. Earth and stone paths traverse this remote, mountainous region of the Kii peninsula, passing by small farming villages and mossy stone monuments along the way. As a birthplace of Buddhism in Japan and the heart of its intersection with Japan's indigenous, nature-worshiping religions, travelers will be trekking through one of the country's most spiritually and historically important regions.
