In addition to experiencing history and culture, this tour also allows you to enjoy the shrine maiden dance experience. Shrine maiden dance is passed down from generation to generation by shrine maidens at the shrine. Shrine maiden dance is often performed at Shinto rituals and Shinto ceremonies, so I think many people have never seen it. Originally, it was said that the gods descended to the shrine maidens who danced the shrine maiden dance and gave them divine guidance. In other words, by dancing the shrine maiden dance, you can become one with the gods and nature. And shrine maiden dance is full of the "feeling of reverence for the gods" and "beautiful etiquette" that the ancient Japanese have always cherished.
