When you’re getting ready to visit a new place, where you do you look for tips on what to eat, see, and do? Here’s an idea: Check out the Travel and Advice board here on Connect. It’s a place where Local Guides share amazing photos and useful info to help others see new parts of the world and plan fantastic trips.
Here just a few things to do on the board:
- Highlight something amazing to do in your country, like swim with the sharks — on purpose — in Australia
- Show off incredible things you’ve seen on your travels, like India’s spectacular historical monuments
- Ask for advice on an upcoming trip, then update the post with a recap to let everyone see the awesome places you visited (like I did when I went to Key West last year!)
Here’s my challenge for you: Think of a place that inspires you, whether it’s right in your city or all the way across the world, and post about it in Travel and Advice. Don’t forget to add a location tag AND photos because let’s face it, we need to find your post and we all love photos.
Check out our tips for making the most of your Connect experience and more tipsspecifically for the Travel and Advice board.
Away from the hustle & bustle of Tokyo, in far away regions in Japan, is a land full of mystery and enchantment. We know about the temples and the shrines, but what about other religious edifices…? Deep in the north are places of historical relevance few people have heard about, like here in Shingo Village, Aomori Prefecture, where the disputed resting grounds of The Christ is said to be buried. Sure, Biblical scholars would disagree with this, but the people here in Shingo swear by its authenticity and have even built an entire city in honor of the legend. It is true, and I can verify this, is that SOME of the locals there have noticeable Western features in the eyes and facial bones, and there may be some evidence of DNA from non-Japanese, but as for The Christ claim, no. Japan is known for importing cultures from all over the world, and then reinventing them to have Japanese origins. Even still it's fun to explore unique new places here and to hear stories of great legends. It is also said that 12 years of The Christ's life was never written in the Bible, and that he had traveled to India... Again, legend...? Who knows... 😉
