The Town in Japan Where Dying Was Forbidden! 🏯 #shorts #japan #shinto #japanhistory #travel
Did you know there’s a place in Japan where dying was once illegal? On Itsukushima Island, also known as Miyajima, death and childbirth were banned to maintain the island’s purity.
Even fallen soldiers were sent away, and cleansing rituals kept the island sacred. While the ban is gone, no cemeteries or hospitals remain.
How far would YOU go to preserve tradition?
