The Kumano Kodo Pilgrimage from Ise & A Delicious Array of Seaweed (3x13)

Uitzenddatum: Jul 02, 2018

The Kii Mountain Range was added to UNESCO World Heritage list in July 2004 for its sacred sites and pilgrimage routes. Our reporter heads to Mie Prefecture and travels the Iseji route of the Kumano Kodo starting at Ise Jingu, Japan's head Shinto shrine. She takes a 2-day, 1-night trip through nature along the mountain, beach and river pilgrimage routes of the Iseji. Also, we zoom in nori seaweed, a popular ingredient in Japanese cuisine.
