About This Tour
Experience a one-of-a-kind journey as we venture into a part of Engakuji Temple that is usually off-limits to the general public. This exclusive area has been reserved for our private use, providing an exceptional opportunity for an immersive cultural encounter. During our time inside this special temple, we'll have the privilege of witnessing a mesmerizing karate performance, trying our hand at zazen meditation, engaging in shakyo (copying Buddhist sutras), and experiencing the art of tea ceremony. If you wish, you can even participate in the karate demonstration yourself. Moreover, our knowledgeable guide will facilitate meaningful conversations, as they translate the insightful words shared by the temple's venerable monk. Don't miss this extraordinary chance to delve into the essence of Japanese culture and uncover the deeper essence of Japan itself. This unique experience goes beyond the ordinary, offering a truly remarkable exploration of Japan's cultural heritage.
