:

The Oki Islands lie in the Sea of Japan off the coast of Shimane Prefecture. For countless centuries, people have lived here along with their cattle, and they have developed a very distinctive culture. Our reporter is David Chart, a writer from Britain who has lived in Japan for 10 years. On this edition of Journeys in Japan, David travels to the Oki Islands, to explore the culture and terrain, and to get a taste of life on these remote islands.
