Ohechi route<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/td>The Koza Kaido road that runs right in front of our inn is the “Ohechi” of the Kumano Kodo.<\/a>
In the Edo period (1603-1867), it seems to have prospered as a “long way but scenic tourist route.

There are also a few routes in the vicinity of Koza that have retained their ancient form. It would be interesting to take a walking trip back in history.<\/span><\/strong><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Kumano Sanzan (Hongu Taisha, Nachi Taisha, Sotoku Taisha)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/td>The Kumano Kodo was a pilgrimage to the Kumano Sanzan (Kumano Hongu Taisha, Nachi Taisha, and Hayatama Taisha). From this inn along the Ohechi route, pilgrims can also pay their respects along the same route as in ancient times.<\/span><\/strong>

The major pilgrimage route at that time was from Kumano Hongu Shrine to Hayatama-taisha Shrine by river cruising. The Kumano River Riverboat Center offers a river pilgrimage route experience<\/a>.
Please take advantage of this experience as an accent to your trip to feel the history!<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
