Highlights

Exclusive Access: Step inside the rail to clean and maintain sacred areas usually strictly closed to the public. Cultural Depth: Shed your tourist status and learn directly from the Ujiko—the devoted local guardians who have protected the shrine for generations. Mindful Practice: Experience "moving meditation" by sweeping the fallen leaves with a bamboo rake, clearing both the shrine grounds and your own mind. Meaningful Keepsake: Craft your own personalized Goshuin (shrine seal) and receive an exclusive version featuring your name written in Japanese Kanji. Scenic Setting: Located in Meiwa Town, the historic gateway to Ise Jingu, immerse yourself in the quiet beauty of Japan’s spiritual heartland.
