Uluitoarea legendă a presupusului mormânt al lui Iisus din Japonia
In Aomori, Japan, a local legend claims that Jesus Christ escaped crucifixion and lived in Shingo, marrying and having children. This story is based on the Takenouchi Documents, which are widely regarded as a hoax. Despite this, the village embraces the folklore to strengthen community ties and celebrate unique traditions, including an annual festival. The Christ Park features two burial mounds believed to be Jesus' and his brother's graves, along with a museum that showcases the legend. The museum director explains that Jesus allegedly visited Japan twice, working for the imperial family before returning to live until the age of 106.
