With the aim of protecting the traditional culture of Odawara and Hakone and conveying its charm, a "Traditional Culture Experience Plan" has been created at Kaiseki Oshimizu in Suzuhiro Kamaboko no Sato, where you can experience geisha dancing and geisha play while dining. Hakone Yumoto boasts the second largest geisha culture after Kyoto. Experience the traditional Japanese culture of "geisha" while enjoying Japanese food and sake prepared by the head chef in an old gassho-style house built over 260 years ago.

You will be able to observe a special ritual called the ``knife ceremony'' at Japan's only shrine dedicated to the god of cooking. Using a knife and chopsticks, you can cook carp, red sea bream, etc. without touching them at all. His movements in accordance with ancient methods and his knife handling are the skills of a master. It is a solemn ceremony that conveys the traditions of Japanese cuisine to this day. In addition, please relax and enjoy the hot springs while enjoying representative Japanese cuisine such as sushi at the nearby Japanese-style inn "Ginrinso Kotobuki".
