Activity Overview

Meditation experience immersed in the tranquility of the bamboo grove

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.

Sharpening your senses through walking

With the afterglow of meditation still lingering, I turn back at the Yamamori Tunnel and walk via Taihukuji Station. Focusing on the sensation of the earth beneath my feet, with each step I take, my thoughts quiet down, and my breath becomes deeper and more peacefully released.
