The Chita Peninsula extends from Nagoya into the Pacific stretching 40km. In the 17th century, the peninsula prospered as a hub for shipping, delivering local products all over Japan. Transporting these products on the rough seas were Bishu Cargo Ships. A local festival kept alive by seafarers tells the past glory of the Bishu Cargo Ships. Locals pay homage to their forerunners who sailed out to sea staking their lives. In this episode we bring you the 300-year-old story of the Chita Peninsula.
