¡Oisemairi Wan Koro
¡Aoki Hiroe / Bun Hasegawa Yoshifumi / E
Description
[Machine Translation] During the Edo period, the Oise-mairi (pilgrimage to Ise Shrine) became very popular. More than one million people a year visited Ise Shrine from all over Japan. In this story, a canine dog, instead of his master, went on the pilgrimage, walked with the travelers, completed the visit, and returned home after receiving an omifuda (votive card). This picture book describes the real Ise-mairi of dogs from the latter half of the Edo period to the beginning of the Meiji period.
