UNESCO Kumano Kodo Pilgrimage Revitalizes Rural Wakayama

SHINGU, JAPAN - JUNE 19: Two travelers stand reading an informative display board next to the UNESCO World Heritage stone monument inside the sacred forested grounds of Kumano Hayatama Taisha in Shingu, Wakayama Prefecture, Japan, on June 19, 2026. This prominent carved stone features kanji characters designating the regional Shinto shrines and historic mountain trail networks across the Kii Peninsula as part of the globally protected pilgrimage network, which draws thousands of international cultural tourists and long-distance hikers each season.
