Old Mountain Highways and Post Towns & Kyoto Horror Fun (2x16)

Uitzenddatum: Aug 21, 2017

Our reporter travels along the old Kisoji highway that connects the post towns of Magome and Tsumago where the 400-year-old scenery remains relatively untouched. She walks stone-paved paths and mountain passes, enjoys local delicacies and woodcraft, and stays in a traditional inn. Also, our correspondent takes us to some mystical locations in history-laden Kyoto, such as wells that serve as entries in and out of the underworld and a shopping street where yokai supernatural beings congregate.
