It is also called "Kinkaku-ji Temple" because the exterior walls of the Shariden Hall, the central building of the temple, are all decorated with gold leaf. The temple was built in 1397. Originally a villa for Shogun Ashikaga Yoshimitsu (the prototype of Shogun Yoshimitsu in the anime "Kei Ikkyu-san"), it was later converted into the Zen temple "Bosatsurei".

[19:00] Shinsaibashi / Dotonbori area (about 1 hour, free time) Amanohashidate is one of the three most scenic spots in Japan, along with Matsushima in Mutsu and Miyajima in Aki. It is a sandbar about 3.6 kilometers long, formed by the deposition of the coast. About 8,000 pine trees of various sizes are planted, and white sand beaches stretch out on both the east and west sides. It is a special natural landscape. It is called "Amanohashidate" because it has a shape like a bridge stretching diagonally towards the sky. There is an observation deck on Mount Monju from which Amanohashidate can be seen. The mountain has a Ferris wheel and recreational facilities suitable for all ages. The view of Amanohashidate from here is called "Flying Dragon View" because it looks like a dragon flying in the sky. From here you can enjoy the vivid scenery of Amanohashidate. (Cable car ticket is at your own expense: Amanohashidate Observatory Cable Car and Monorail Combined Ticket 850 yen) Ine Village was chosen by the Japanese as one of the "18 Most Beautiful Villages in Japan". With its unique Japanese floating boathouse architecture, you can experience the original ecological scenery that cannot be experienced in tourist spots. Even today, people coexist with the sea in front of them. The clear and beautiful sea, the deep green mountains, the ever-changing colors of the sky, and the colors of the boathouses that represent Japan. These are the pure colors of nature that can only be experienced in Ine Town. The fishing village along the coast is away from the hustle and bustle and is full of simple innocence. You can experience a 25-minute cruise around Ine Bay at your own expense and even feed the seagulls. (Boats depart every hour, every 30 minutes. The fare is 1,200 yen for adults and 600 yen for children, at your own expense. A bag of food for the seagulls costs 100 yen. If the boat is cancelled due to wind or waves, you can wander around freely.) Note: There are many eagles living around Ine Funaya, so please be careful when boarding the sightseeing boat. If you see an eagle, stop feeding the seagulls immediately and put away any food you are holding to prevent the eagles from pecking at you.

Local people with high ideals have worked hard to create a tourist exchange facility where anyone can stop by and enjoy the beautiful scenery of Ine. There are facilities such as an information center, restaurant, and cafe. "Hiyori" means clear and good weather in Japanese. The appearance of the seawater sparkling in the sunlight is the most ideal expression of "Funaya Weather".

Koyasan is a sacred place of Shingon Esoteric Buddhism founded by Kobo Daishi Kukai 1200 years ago. The entire area of Mt. Koya is called ``Kongobu-ji, the head temple.'' In particular, ``Okunoin'' and ``Danjo Garan'' are two of the most sacred places of worship. We will guide you through spots such as Danjo Garan, Okunoin, Koyasan Shichibenten, etc. in the style of a trainee monk. It is also recommended that you experience training in the same way as the former Shugenja, and visit the legends related to Kukai. This experience work is recommended for those who want to learn more about Koyasan. Half day and full day courses are available.

Just by living, people accumulate dirt and impurities at the end of each day. It would be nice if we could wash them off ourselves every day, but for busy modern people, it is not easy. Mount Koya, which spreads out in a mountain basin surrounded by peaks at an altitude of about 1,000m, is a sacred place of Shingon Esoteric Buddhism founded by Kobo Daishi Kukai 1,200 years ago. This plan involves climbing together to the top of Benten-dake, the watershed of Mount Koya, and performing a purification and purification prayer in front of the shrine. (Depending on the weather, etc., it may be performed at a different shrine.) A special human figure will be prepared. Usually, the Great Purification is performed at the end of June and the end of December, but for our purification and purification plan, a specialized prayer leader will be available all year round when visitors are in a good mood. We will offer our original incense amulet after praying for it. Why not spend a refreshing time with the goddess of water (Benzaiten)? This is an experiential workshop recommended for those who want to learn more about Mount Koya.

At Mitsuishi Fudoson, a traditional esoteric Buddhist temple that worships the waterfall where Kobo Daishi trained at the age of 21, we will practice rituals at the goma and make our wishes come true. The prayer priest is Sato Myosen (representative of the Kishu Koyasan Yokofue Association), a nun who lives in Mt. Koya. After the Goma prayer, if the weather is good, you can visit the waterfall and achieve a unique purification. Although you can apply for the Goma prayer experience alone, we recommend visiting in a group.
