Legenda bizară dintr-un sat japonez. Localnicii susțin că aici se află mormântul lui Iisus Hristos

In Aomori Prefecture, Japan, a legend claims that Jesus did not die on the cross but instead lived in Shingo, marrying and having children. This story, detailed in the Takenouchi Documents, is widely regarded as a hoax, lacking biblical support. Despite this, the local community celebrates the legend, particularly through the Christ Festival, which attracts many visitors. The museum director emphasizes that the tale should be viewed as a legend, not a fact. Local residents honor the site as a tradition passed down through generations, with the mayor acknowledging its significance regardless of its historical accuracy.
