Plan description

We will tour the famous Sugamo Togenuki Jizo statue, Koganji Temple, and experience washing the Kannon statue, which has the benefits of health and longevity. We will also take a look at Shinshoji Temple's large copper-made Jizo Bodhisattva seated statue (Edo Roku Jizo), which is very unusual and is wearing an umbrella. It is possible to take pictures of both the Kannon statue washing experience and the Jizo Bodhisattva statue. Take a train or taxi to Rikugien Garden. Rikugien is a vast Japanese garden measuring 88,000 square meters (approximately 300 meters x 300 meters), and is a very beautiful garden that expresses the sea, land, mountains, and lakes. Participants can experience a mini-hike. At the teahouse on the shore of a vast pond, you can enjoy matcha and Japanese sweets while looking out at the beautiful scenery. The schedule will be: Meet at JR Sugamo Station - Visit Jizo Bodhisattva - Visit Koganji Temple - Wash Kannon experience - Move to Rikugien Garden - Walk around Rikugien Garden - Disband at JR Komagome Station. It will be a walking tour of approximately 2 hours.

Visit to Edo Roku Jizo

The very large statue of Jizo Bosatsu wearing an umbrella is very rare, and you can also take photos of it.

Visit to Koganji Temple and wash Kannon experience

We will tour Koganji Temple, which has the benefits of longevity and health. Participants will have the experience of washing a Kannon statue as a prayer for longevity and good health.

Rikugien garden tour

This is a vast Japanese garden built in 1702. There are viewpoints inspired by 88 famous waka poems. It is a cloister-style garden centered around a pond that resembles the sea, and includes mountains, islands, lakes, waterfalls, and more. There are so many trees that it feels like having a picnic in the forest. Participants can enjoy matcha and Japanese sweets at a teahouse with a beautiful view by the pond.
