Talk Japan: Kumano Kodo Pilgrimage: On tour with Jamie - Walk Japan

Please join us on a virtual pilgrimage of the Kumano Kodo, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. We are led by Jamie Dwyer, a veteran Walk Japan Tour leader, who takes us on a fascinating journey along one of Japan’s famed ancient paths to spiritual salvation. Jamie illuminates our way as we follow in the footsteps, albeit virtually, of pilgrims who have been travelling to Kumano for over 1,000 years. Our journey in his expert company takes us through the pilgrimage’s history, society, culture, politics, personalities and environment; the sacred and the profane, the ancient and the contemporary. Jamie colours this presentation with his own experiences, anecdotes and interpretations drawn from his frequent visits to the Kumano Kodo. Jamie has led our guided Kumano Kodo Pilgrimage tour on many occasions, and also researched and curated its companion Wayfarer Kumano Kodo self-guided tour. These are some of Walk Japan’s most popular tours and his presentation serves as an excellent introduction to both. --- Walk Japan is pleased to introduce its Talk Japan series of online events providing in-depth and fascinating insights into a plethora of aspects of Japan, its history, culture and society drawn on the personal experience and expertise of Walk Japan's Tour Leaders and some of our friends, who also have deep knowledge about the nation.
