Although Christianity was banned in Japan for over 250 years, some communities refused to abandon their faith. Worshipping in secret, these "hidden Christians" developed some unique practices. Shizuka Anderson visits areas in Nagasaki and Kumamoto prefectures where these traditions have been preserved and which are designated as a UNESCO World Cultural Heritage site.
