Egami Settlement is a settlement located in the northwestern part of Naru Island in the central Five Island Islands. In the late Edo period, some of the hidden Christians who had migrated from the outer waters of the Omura clan in a pact with the Goshima Domain formed settlements in various places on the island, including Nagahae, Tsubakihara, and Nanetsu in Naru. Four houses were also settled in Egami, a valley close to the remote sea. It said that each settlement continued their faith secretly, with leaders as the center, and many people maintained their hiding-era faith in Narushima even after the ban on Christianity. All of the people in the village of Egami returned to Catholicism in Meiji 14 (1881), and in the late Meiji period built a simple church. The present-day Egami Cathedral was erected in 1918. If you stroll through the Egami district, you can see the status of the settlement of Tanisako Topography [Tanisako Chikei], which is a typical example of a migration site, and the quiet setting of the Egami Cathedral, which is a representative example of a wooden church adapted to it.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":9,"featured_media":220265,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"ep_exclude_from_search":false},"categories":[75],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-290322","travelpost","type-travelpost","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-spot"],"blocksy_meta":[],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.allway-japan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/travelpost\/290322","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.allway-japan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/travelpost"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.allway-japan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/travelpost"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.allway-japan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/9"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.allway-japan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/travelpost\/290322\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.allway-japan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/220265"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.allway-japan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=290322"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.allway-japan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=290322"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.allway-japan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=290322"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
