[Experience only] Heal by walking. Meditation and walking along the abandoned railway line in the bamboo forest.

Experience meditation at the site of the abandoned 'Old National Rail Kurayoshi Line' consumed by the forest.

Focusing the sharpened senses on the soles of the feet and the surrounding scenery, the time spent immersed in simply walking clears the mind and encourages deep breathing. At the goal, Daisen Pond, one can experience a moment of merging with nature. This is a retreat program that makes you want to take deep breaths to your heart's content.

*This activity requires a request reservation. After confirming your reservation, we will check the availability and finalize your booking by contacting you from the general reception.

The journey begins at the 'former National Rail Kurayoshi Line abandoned track,' which continues like a tunnel of bamboo groves, with meditation led by the monk of Jizoin. Enveloped in a mystical silence, by emptying the mind, one sheds the noise of everyday life and awakens their original senses.

With the lingering effects of meditation, I set out on a walk towards 'Daisen Pond', about 2.5 km away. Focusing on the sensation of the earth beneath my feet, with each step I take, my thoughts quiet down, and my breathing becomes deeper and more tranquil.

Once you arrive at the pond by the goal, take a moment to breathe while gazing at the shifting surface of the water. Enjoy the sense of oneness that blurs the boundaries between the surrounding scenery and yourself, and spend a moment savoring the feeling of liberation that clears your mind and body.
