“Discover the Essence of Zen and Japanese Culture in Just Two Hours”

Introduction Section

Welcome to our peaceful mountain temple, where you can experience a brief but meaningful introduction to Zen and Japanese culture. My name is Daiko Iizuka, and I am the head priest here. Over the years, I’ve dedicated myself to studying and sharing the profound teachings of Zen and the beauty of Japanese traditions.

Join us for a tranquil 2-hour experience led by our English-speaking temple master, where you can:

  • Explore the sacred temple grounds.
  • Practice zazen (seated meditation) and find your inner calm.
  • Visit our meticulously crafted Japanese garden.
  • Visit our traditional tearoom and enjoy freshly prepared matcha.
  • Engage in free-flowing conversations about Zen and Japanese culture.
