Journeys in Japan: 2x17
The Great Nature Along the Shimanto River
This week on “Journeys in Japan” we visit the Shimanto River, which is considered to be one of the country’s most beautiful. It meanders nearly 200 kilometers before it finally feeds into the Pacific Ocean. Our reporter, Vincent Giry, takes in its rare beauty and enjoys outdoor pleasures along it.
