Guests can enjoy a Buddhist meditation experience at a peaceful, historic temple. Afterward, they will take a close-up tour of Buddhist statues designated as cultural properties, guided by a knowledgeable monk. Then, in a building next to the temple, guests will learn how to make onigiri (rice balls) and miso soup with instruction from a Japanese chef. Using side dishes prepared by the chef, each guest will pack their own bento box and enjoy lunch on-site.
After lunch, guests will have the rare opportunity to ring the temple’s large bell and visit the neighboring Shinto shrine.
