The main sites of worship in the Kumano region are the three Grand Shrines of Kumano: Kumano Hongu Taisha, Kumano Hayatama Taisha, and Kumano Nachi Taisha. As a set they are known as the Kumano Sanzan. Kumano Hongu Taisha is situated in the heart of the Kumano. The austere shrine pavilions were originally located at Oyunohara, a sand-bank in the Kumano-gawa River. Kumano Hayatama Taisha is located in Shingu city, where the impressive Kumano-gawa River empties into the expanse of the Pacific Ocean.

Kohechi Kumano Koda Pilgrimage Route Mountainous Route

For over 1000 years people from all levels of society, including retired emperors and aristocrats, have made the arduous pilgrimage to Kumano. These pilgrims used a network of routes, now called the Kumano Kodo, which stretch across the mountainous Kii Peninsula.

The Kohechi route runs north-south through the center of the Kii Peninsula, linking the Buddhist temple complex of Koyasan and the syncretic Grand Shrines of the Kumano Sanzan. It is characterized by steep trails that cross over four passes in excess of 1000 meters elevation along its ~65 km length. It was fonned in the 13th to 14th centuries.
