Experience Zen meditation or sutra copying, and enjoy vegetarian food with monk
At Gokuraku Zenji Temple, the family temple of the Aso family, you can experience Zen meditation or sutra copying, and feel the time of the long history of Aso. After the experience, you will be taken on a tour of the Gokuraku Zen temple grounds with the guidance of a monk, and enjoy a healthy vegetarian meal made with plenty of local ingredients and home-grown vegetables. After the meal, we will enjoy green tea and sweets prepared in the Omotesenke style, and have a relaxing time. Finally, the experience ends with the ringing of the temple bell. This is a time to experience the history of Shugendo in Aso from over 1200 years ago.
