Itinerario
Visita il Tempio Seiken-ji, uno storico tempio buddista zen con oltre 1.000 anni di storia. Il tempio è notoriamente associato a Tokugawa Ieyasu, il fondatore dello shogunato Tokugawa, che ha studiato qui da bambino. Gli ospiti esploreranno i tranquilli terreni del tempio, ammireranno la sua tradizionale architettura in legno e capiranno il ruolo che questo tempio ha giocato nel plasmare la storia e la cultura giapponese.
Al Tempio Zuiun-in, godrai di una pacifica introduzione alla cultura zen giapponese. Inizia con una sessione di zazen (meditazione seduta) guidata da un monaco zen. Concentrati sul respiro e sulla postura per vivere un momento di calma e consapevolezza. Dopo la meditazione, gustate il tè verde matcha e i dolci giapponesi di stagione in una sala tatami tradizionale. Impara le basi della cultura del tè giapponese e dell'ospitalità. Il prossimo è un'esperienza calligrafica unica. In base al suono del tuo nome, ti verranno offerti diversi bellissimi caratteri kanji, ognuno con un significato positivo come "amore", "pace" o "sorriso". Scegli il tuo preferito, e impara a scriverlo con pennello e inchiostro. Ti porterai a casa la tua arte fatta a mano come souvenir speciale. Per chi fosse interessato, possiamo anche spiegare il concetto tradizionale di bilanciamento del conteggio dei colpi, utilizzato in Giappone per selezionare i caratteri kanji con buona fortuna e armonia. Questa esperienza è un modo perfetto per rilassarsi, imparare e connettersi con la cultura giapponese in modo autentico e personale.

I truly enjoyed the balance of the experience — history, meditation, and hands-on culture. Seikenji Temple was impressive, and the Zen session helped me slow down after busy travel days.

My wife and I joined this tour while our cruise was in port and it was one of the best things we did in Japan. The tea ceremony was fascinating – graceful, beautiful, and very different from anything back home. We also visited a historic temple and enjoyed a short meditation and calligraphy activity, which made the whole experience feel rich and authentic. The small group size and friendly guide made it feel very personal. Highly recommended!

This tour was perfect for our family with young kids. Even the short bus ride to the temple was exciting for our children (7 and 9) – they loved watching the scenery and felt like real adventurers. At the temple, they absolutely enjoyed trying calligraphy with brush and ink, and were so proud to take home their own kanji characters. We also had a taste of matcha with sweets and a peaceful temple visit. Everything was well organized, close to the port, and easy with kids. Highly recommended for families!
