Tradition

Experience the Japanese spirit with all five senses

Japan is a nation uniquely in touch with its past. Experiencing the modern inheritance of this rich cultural legacy will surely give you a sense of the spirit of the people of Japan.

At ancient shrines and in the heart of historic cities, its rich cultural heritage lives on as something not just to be admired from afar, but actively appreciated. From the transformative travel experience of participating in yamabushi— the mountain ascetic tradition—to hands-on practice at a seat of Zen Buddhism, take in the spirit of Japan and its people with all five senses.
