The “Kumano Area” located in southern Wakayama Prefecture is known since ancient times as the “Land of Rebirth” and is the spiritual home of the Japanese people. It is a vast sanctuary centered on the World Heritage “Kumano Sanzan” (Hongu Taisha, Hayatama Taisha, Nachi Taisha), with the “Kumano Kodo” pilgrimage roads weaving through the mountains. Embraced by deep mountains, this land retains untouched nature, Japan’s oldest hot springs, and mystical megalithic worship. It is said that by walking while holding awe for nature, visitors purify their minds and bodies and gain vitality for rebirth. It promises the best experience for authentic travelers seeking hiking, hot springs, history, and deep silence.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
