Journeys in Japan S2011E38 - Sado: A Stage for Tradition

Sado, located in the Sea of Japan, is a large island of 260 kilometers in perimeter. Our reporter George Bourdaniotis gets to take in a Noh workshop. He also experiences an ancient festival with long history and visits a small area where the traditional houses are well preserved. After lots of drama, he meets up with a fisherman to learn the old fashioned method of octopus catching-a method used in the autumn.
