[Wakayama] Feel the Heian period! Kumano Kodo

The official name of the Kumano Kodo World Heritage Site is "Sacred Sites and Pilgrimage Routes in the Kii Mountain Range."
⁡
The road itself is a World Heritage Site, and it is a rare place known as a path of prayer, just like Santiago de Compostela, which straddles France and Spain.
⁡
If that's the case, we should walk it! The hot blood of a World Heritage Certification Level 1 holder got excited, so we even rented Heian period costumes and started our pilgrimage to Kumano☀️
⁡
This time, we chose the 2.5 km route from Daimonzaka in Nakahechi to Nachi Taisha, which is easy for beginners.
⁡
I managed to walk it in an hour, energized by the sunlight filtering through the large cedar trees on the old road✨
⁡
We rented costumes at Daimonzaka Chaya in Daimonzaka for 4,500 yen for 3 hours👘
⁡
Highly recommended for travel memories☝️
