William Adams received a fiefdom from the first Shogun, becoming Japan's sole foreign feudal lord.
We visit sites in Hemi on the Miura Peninsula – his former domain – that evoke his life, work, character, and family relationships.

The location is close to Yokosuka Main Port, the entrance from the Pacific Ocean into Tokyo Bay, a key defensive location for Edo.

Visit to Jōdoji Temple, his familial temple.
Though primarily a temple for its parishioners and not a tourist site open to the general public, our group, visiting to commemorate William Adams, was specially permitted to enter the main hall. We received materials about William Adams from the temple staff, who will transmit us informations about him.

Hike for just over 20 minutes towards Tsukayama Park.
We view Tokyo Bay and the Bōsō Peninsula opposite, gaining an understanding of Shogun’s strategy.

Visit to the graves of William Adams and his wife, discussing his work across two bases: Edo and Hemi on the Miura Peninsula.

Lo más destacado
