Descrizione
Discover the spiritual side of Hiroshima on a guided tour. Visit Mitaki-dera Temple, the Peace Pagoda, and enjoy a vegetarian Buddhist lunch.
Begin your day with a visit to Mitaki-dera Temple, a hidden sanctuary nestled in the lush mountains. Known for its tranquil pathways, moss-covered statues, and peaceful waterfalls, Mitaki-dera offers a rare opportunity to connect with nature and spirituality at the same time. This serene setting prepares the mind and heart for the deeper reflections to come.
From there, continue to the Peace Pagoda, a striking monument that stands as a symbol of harmony and hope. Overlooking the city, this sacred site offers breathtaking views as well as a space to contemplate universal themes of peace and compassion.
To balance the spiritual exploration with natural beauty, enjoy a leisurely walk along the Kyobashi River. The gentle flow of the water and the surrounding greenery provide the perfect backdrop for mindful strolling, encouraging you to slow down and savor the simplicity of the moment.
No spiritual journey is complete without mindful nourishment. The tour includes a traditional vegetarian Buddhist lunch, prepared with seasonal ingredients that reflect harmony with nature. This wholesome meal not only delights the palate but also reflects the Buddhist principles of simplicity and respect for life.
Adding a truly unique dimension to the experience, you have the option to join a short mindfulness session guided by a Buddhist monk. Through meditative walking and gentle reflection, embrace stillness and reconnect with yourself on a deeper level. This optional practice, supported by donation, transforms the tour from a simple sightseeing trip into a meaningful inner journey.
