Journeys in Japan - Season 15 Episode 21 With Isabella Bird — Part 5: On the Road to Aomori (2024)
British explorer and writer Isabella Bird arrived in Japan in 1878, just 10 years after the country opened its doors to the West. Accompanied by a young man who served as both interpreter and attendant, she traveled deep into the hinterland. Unbeaten Tracks in Japan is her highly praised travelogue of that journey. In this episode, vocalist Chiara Terzuolo traces Bird's route from the Hiyama district of Noshiro City, Akita Prefecture. She then passes through Odate City and continues until she reaches Kuroishi City in Aomori Prefecture.
