Highlights

If you want a special experience that you can only have in Kyoto, try the Zen meditation experience at Hozen-in in Kyoto. Zen is a Buddhist practice that means 'meditation while sitting', and it refers to realizing your true self by calming your body and mind. Sit at Hozen-in with the sound of birds chirping, focus on your breathing, and take the time to observe your mind!

Even if it is your first time experiencing Zen meditation, you can participate without any pressure as the monks will provide thorough explanations. Chairs will also be provided for those with leg problems.

Program

Kyoto Hozenin
A leisurely sitting experience

Spend time cultivating your body and mind through a zazen experience at Kyoto Hozen-in, which is surrounded by beautiful gardens. Even beginners will be kindly informed, so you can participate without any worries, and it is even more special because you can enjoy a temple-style dessert, sesame pudding, along with the zazen experience. It will take about 60 minutes from the zazen experience to the dessert, and it starts at 2 p.m., so you can visit leisurely without having to rush.

Temple-style medicinal dessert, sesame pudding

The sesame pudding served with the Zen meditation experience at Kyoto Uji Hozen-in is a medicinal dessert made by the monk in charge of the temple's kitchen. The sesame pudding drizzled with brown sugar syrup is wrapped in soft white rice cake, so you can enjoy it sweetly.
