Cycle Around Japan: Mie - A Summer Dream

Travel Documentary hosted by Chris Wells, published by NHK in 2018 - English narration.



Information
------------------------------
The area around "Jingu", the Grand Shrine of Ise was lively even during the Edo period, bustling with activity and entertainment while the shrine itself served as a sacred place for worshippers. This created a distinct culture. The complex terrain led to unique customs which are still cherished today. A traditional shellfish female diver "Ama" who enters the water without any breathing gear is born from necessity. Discover the local culture and other traditions on our 300km journey.
