Description
Minutes from Nagoya Station, taste temple serenity: a private blessing in a hidden main hall, followed by a monk’s calligraphy of your name in Japanese to take home. I'll guide in English or French.
Meet your guide Miyuki (CommuNippon Co., Ltd.) near Nakamura Park—an easy hop from Nagoya Station—for a story-driven walk into the birthplace legends of the famous Japanese warrior of 16th century.
1) Nakamura Park & Toyokuni Shrine
Begin with a relaxed stroll through the park and a visit to Toyokuni Shrine. Miyuki shares the key historical context, how local worship and community life connect to the Toyotomi warrior's story, and what to look for as you walk.
2) Toyotomi Museum (NHK Drama Gallery)
Next, visit the Toyotomi Museum to deepen the narrative with exhibits that bring the era to life. This stop adds vivid detail before the most intimate part of the day.
3) Josenji Temple: exclusive priest & calligraphy experience
Then head to Josenji, known locally as a Toyotomi-related site. Here, you’ll be welcomed by the resident priest for an experience rarely available to visitors: you’ll enter the main hall (normally not open for tours) for a short, serene prayer/chanting ceremony. Afterwards, the priest creates a personalized gift—your name written in Japanese with an explanation of the chosen characters. It’s a beautiful keepsake and an unforgettable cultural moment.
Tour style: choose a semi-private small group (2–6 guests) or a private tour (your group only).
Languages: English or French. The pace is gentle, with time for photos and questions.
Included: guided tour, museum admission, temple program and kanji calligraphy gift.
Not included: transportation to the meeting point, food/drinks, personal purchases.
Meeting point: [exact meeting spot near Nakamura Park Station].
