Easy

Spend the night living like a monk and experience first hand Japan’s spirituality and performance culture.
Stay at a traditional Buddhist temple with 300 years of history. Experience traditional Japanese religious culture first hand while living like a Buddhist monk for a day. Head to the noh stage to learn all about Japan’s masked performing art that predates kabuki. Try on the clothes of the art and stand on the noh stage, an experience that is traditionally reserved only for the performers. Head back for a dinner made with local ingredients featuring the area’s famous tofu. In the morning put on some traditional haiku ceremonial clothing and make a mountain pilgrimage as part of a Japanese purification ritual. Take the cable car to the top of the mountain and enjoy a meal with the gods at Afuri shrine to finish this unique experience.
