The Experience
Kumano River Cruise (Sandanbo) The Kumano River is registered as a World Heritage site as a river pilgrimage route. Water transportation of daily commodities was also active, and river boats such as “Sandanbo” developed during the Edo period. This is a leisurely tour along the Kumano River on a “Sandanbo,” a replica of the boats used in those days.
Kumano Hayatama Taisha Grand Shrine This shrine is located near the mouth of the Kumano River and is dedicated to the deity Hayatama. The shrine grounds include “Gongenyama” in the background, “Mifunejima” and “Otabisho” on the Kumano River, and the “Nagi Tree,” a natural monument, which is considered a sacred tree, is located within the shrine grounds.
Kumano Nachi Taisha Grand Shrine Kumano Nachi Taisha Grand Shrine is one of the Kumano Sanzan (three Grand Shrines of Kumano). The origin of Kumano Nachi Taisha Grand Shrine is the nature worship of Nachi Falls, and the deities of Kumano were originally enshrined at the base of the falls, along with the god of the falls.
