5.00This tour offered an unparalleled opportunity to witness a sacred prayer ceremony at Meiji Jinguu. The serene atmosphere of the sacred room, accompanied by the sounds of traditional court music and the chanting of prayers, was truly moving and left me feeling spiritually refreshed. Thanks to the guide’s thorough explanation of the rituals and proper etiquette beforehand, I was able to fully appreciate the moment. KOHEI&YOSUKE was kindness and attentiveness were also unforgettable. They thoughtfully answered my questions, and their words about “valuing time to reflect on oneself” stayed with me. The photos taken after the tour became a cherished memory of my trip. I highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to experience authentic Japanese culture.
