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.
