An outdoor sauna experience with a water bath in the Ota River, a clear stream whose water source is Nachi Primeval Forest, just like Nachi Falls, the best waterfall in Japan. The venue, Daitaiji, is a 1,200-year-old Yakushi sacred place where you can experience zazen and sutra copying. Listen to a staff sermon about the close relationship between Zen and the sauna, and write your wishes on a wooden stick. Throw the gomagi into the wood stove by yourself and make a wish to Jizo-san. A resurrection experience that looks at the state of mind through Zen. 30 seconds from the tent to the river. The shortest class comfort in Kansai! The river is so deep that you can soak up to your head, and there are shallows where you can lie down. No need to pour water because it flows. Dive directly from the sauna to the river surface is also OK. ~ Flow of the day ~ ① Check in at the reception at the main entrance 5 minutes before the meeting time. Confirm the location of the sermon and changing clothes. ② At the venue, receive a sermon on the deep relationship between Zen and sauna. ③ Write your wishes on the gomaki and visit Yakushido where the principal image of worship is enshrined.
