Product Info
The content of this product is provided by machine translation and may not reflect the actual information, please take this into consideration before booking.
- Why not experience the charm of the Kumano River, a World Heritage Site, by thinking about the relationship between people and rivers while being rocked on a riverboat, experiencing the lifestyle and culture of the Kumano River basin, and meeting local people?
- River Pilgrimage Route "Kumano River"
- There are many pilgrimage routes to the Kumano Sanzan shrines, but the Kumano River was the first in the world to be registered as a World Heritage Site as a "river pilgrimage route" because people traveled between Kumano Hongu Taisha Shrine and Kumano Hayatama Taisha Shrine by riverboat.
- Mifune Island
- Mifunejima is also registered as a World Heritage Site. After visiting the main shrine, retired emperors and aristocrats would travel by boat down the Kumano River to Shingu, and songs they wrote about Mifunejima remain.
