The Hidden History of a Port Town & Thrilling Rock Climbing (3x3)

Data emisji: Lut 05, 2018

Our reporter visits the port city of Tsuruga, Fukui Prefecture, which played a pivotal role connecting Japan with Eurasia. She admires tiny, handmade, washi dolls, has fun with anime cosplay for free, and discovers the little known historical connection Tsuruga has with East Europe. To wrap up her trip, she samples the winter delicacy – Echizen crabs, as the local snow crabs are named, at a fish wholesaler. Also, we take a look at rock climbing locations and bouldering gyms across the country.
