You can enter a shrine that is usually not open to tourists. First, wear a kimono and hold a sword to feel like a samurai, and women will have their hair done to match their kimono, so take lots of memorable photos. The plan also includes a photo shoot by a professional Japanese photographer, so we will also give you the data! There are some points in the shrine that cannot be photographed, but we have permission, so we will also take photos of the experience. In the Japanese-style room, you can enjoy tea and sweets, and a precious performance of gagaku (one of Japan's oldest musical instruments) right in front of you. Since it is inside the building, you can experience it even on rainy days! You can enjoy all of these in one place! Don't miss this special experience, a collaboration between us and the shrine! ~Experience flow~12:50 Meeting We will be waiting for you near the large ginkgo tree (in front of the dance hall) in the grounds of Shichisha Shrine. 13:00 Change into kimono Hair set for women 14:00 Shoot in the dance hall Props such as swords are provided, so feel like a samurai and have your photo taken by a professional photographer! 14:40 Move to the Japanese-style room Enjoy tea, sweets, and live gagaku music. 15:50 Pray for a safe journey in the main hall 16:30 End of experience 17:00 Change into your clothes and head home safely. *Please note that the estimated start time and experience time may change depending on the number of participants.
In the Japanese-style room, you can enjoy tea and sweets in a casual atmosphere, and you can also enjoy the performance of Gagaku, one of the oldest musical instruments in Japan, performed by the Shinto priest himself. It's rare to have such a valuable experience, so please come!
Regular tourists cannot enter the shrine unless they go through the formalities. At the main hall, we pray for the safety of your continued journey, and conclude by tasting a small amount of sake called ``sacred sake.'' Photography is normally prohibited here, so we were able to have the photo taken by a professional photographer because we had permission. We will give you data about the experience!
Let's wear a kimono and take photos at photo spots. In particular, the ``Maiden'', which can be called a stage at a shrine, is a must-see. There are many shrines throughout Japan, but not all of them have dance halls, and I think it is rare that tourists can go up there and take photos.
