Details of the experience

Founded in 1467 (Onin 1). A sermon given by the chief priest of "Ryukazan Zenshoji", which has a history over 550 years.

Some people may find it a bit formal, but sermons convey the teachings of Buddhism in an easy-to-understand manner.
One of the charms of sermons is that you can listen to stories from various perspectives, such as daily events, world news, and topics.

Listening to sermons may give you new insights.
After listening to sermons, let's make Buddhist rosary.
It is also attractive that you can enjoy conversation with the chief priest while making a rosary!
The precious stones of the rosary, such as Tounseki (whitish amethyst), come with a wooden box, so you can take them home or store them with peace of mind.
The "Fusho no Matsu" in the precincts is shaped like a 300-year-old bonsai tree, and its roots protrude from the ground. The one and only black pine.
