J-Trip Plan

Mystical Spots around Japan & Delicacies of Ise-Shima (1x5)

:

Japanese call a place believed to have a special energy that refreshes a "power spot". We look at viewer photos of places where they felt such energy, and discuss Ise Jingu and other locations linked with mythology. Our reporters savor the seafood delicacies of Ise-Shima, Japan's first tourist destination, and explore the cities of Ise, Toba and Shima. No trip is complete without souvenirs. We look at toys made from local timber and carved netsuke ornaments regarded as miniature works of art.
