Introduction of Aokigahara Tree Sea
Forests are one of the most precious resources that nature has given to mankind, so all countries have extremely beautiful forest landscapes. But as the world has grown, the damage to the environment has become more and more serious, and many forests have disappeared. And the place I want to introduce today is an unusual forest, known as the most eerie place in the world, here is the Aoki Hara Tree Sea.
Aokiwara Tree Sea, located at the northern foot of Japan's Mt. Fuji, is a dense primeval forest. This mysterious forest environment is harsh, full of sinister atmosphere, far from the city and off the beaten track. With its dense woods and clean air, this forest is one of the final destinations chosen by suicide victims.
Second, the historical background of the Suicide Forest
Aokiwara Tree Sea is obviously not an ordinary forest, it has a terrible history. It is reported that this forest was once the "private domain" of tree trading merchants during World War II, but it has since become an ideal place for Japanese suicides. Since 1950, it has become one of the most famous and notorious suicide forests in Japan, attracting a large number of suicides.
Since 1970, an average of about 100 people have committed suicide in this forest every year. It is said that at the height of Aokigahara's tree sea, a total of 172 people committed suicide here in 2003; In 2010, the number of bodies reached nearly 300.
Third, the current situation of the Suicide Forest
The Suicide Forest shows the dark side of human nature. Here, you can usually see some strange phenomena, such as suddenly crying or shouting when you can't see your fingers; Or go for a walk in the forest for days after you leave, and still encounter the same road signs and sights, which is creepy.
Entering this forest, you will feel a rich silence, and there is a mysterious atmosphere in the air. In this lesser-known forest, the trees are tall and leafy, and the sky is full of smoke, like a mysterious kingdom beyond the reach of man.
But at the same time, there are countless dangers hidden here. The sound of streams in the forest makes you speed up your pace, because you don't know when you look back, you can still see your footprints. I heard that more and more people are getting lost here, and there are even cases of group members disappearing in the forest. Many people tend to come here and suddenly lose their sense of direction and electronic devices such as compasses and mobile phones fail completely.
Fourth, the mystery and rumors of the Suicide Forest
The mysterious history of Aokigahara's sea of trees has attracted many legends and rumors, such as a traditional suicide method called "fallen nobles", which is very popular in this forest, and they will bind themselves to tree stumps until death after an extremely long period of self-reflection.
There is also a custom of building a "shrine," a simple tent to commemorate those who went missing in Aokigahara's sea. Inside, relics such as handwritten letters and photographs left behind were placed, and even though the tent would be quickly destroyed by wind and rain, occasionally someone would re-erect it.
V. The Warning of the Forest of Suicide
Aokigahara Tree Sea is a very dangerous place, not only because of its mysterious history and horror stories of suicides, but also because of its many dangerous places, often getting lost, falling into a valley, falling into a river, or dying.
Entering this forest requires some preparation and staying safe. The best way to do this is with a guided tour. In addition to the Japanese language, visitors should have basic field exploration skills, and it is best to do some relevant exercises and carry some basic tools before traveling.
The Aoki Hara Tree Sea is a mysterious place, and bizarre stories and legends also bring countless reveries. But we have to admit that this place is a dangerous forest and it has claimed too many lives. Therefore, we cannot enter this forest arbitrarily, and we must always be cautious and vigilant.
