“It was truly such a wonderful and one of a kind experience. We did the tea ceremony, the calligraphy class, and amulet making all while wearing traditional kimonos.

“The tour was really nice! Learned more about Shinto, did some unique yoga and loved the modern way of the tea ceremony. The guide told us interesting stuff about the history of the place and the view on the top was amazing.”

“This was a lovely experience from beginning to end. The location is exceptionally beautiful, and I learned so much from the calligraphy lesson as well as the tea ceremony. Their hospitality was fantastic.! I would highly recommend this as a place to go while traveling here”

“This is a small intimate experience which I found to be joyous. My son and I learned so much and our teacher was just magical. I was hesitant about putting on a kimono at my age (69!) and my shape ( rounded in the middle area), but the laRead more”
