Video of Shinkamigoto Town, an island of prayer where beauty and history intersect

2021.05.29

“Shinkamigoto Town” is located in the northern part of the Goto Islands, the westernmost island of Kyushu. The cross-shaped island is dotted with 29 churches and is known as the island of prayer. Built by believers who have endured the crackdown on Christians as a proof of freedom of religion, the church is still surrounded by the pure light of the earth, the clear blue sea, and the magnificent sky, and still has a majestic atmosphere.
A video introducing Shinkamigoto Town has been delivered, so please take a look.

Is this Japan? Please enjoy the different space.
Part 2 is “Hinoshima Arifu” (planned).
