While there are other notable towns along this legendary route, one of the most memorable aspects of a visit to this area is the human connection made with the local residents.
While walking in Japan, you’ll likely spot small stone statues shaped like children or depictions of Buddha. These may seem like mischievous forest sprites, but their real identity tells a different story.
