Jindaiji Temple Prayer Ceremony Experience
Keio Tourist Service arranged a special experience for our guests, “MIYABI - the elegance of old times -” plan, which included a Shinto prayer ceremony at the ancient temple, Jindaiji. Our guests changed into traditional Japanese kimono at the hotel, and were driven in a private car to the temple. At the temple, a monk threw pieces of wood (called goma) into the flames of a ceremonial fire, praying for the fulfillment of their wishes. After the ceremony, they enjoyed a stroll around the temple grounds and a kaiseki meal at Suijin-en, a beautiful Japanese garden located within the temple grounds. We are committed to deepening our connection with the local community and providing special experiences that utilize local resources.
Holding Hida Takayama Exhibition Event
In October 2024, the museum exhibited precious traditional crafts from Hida Takayama and photographs of the beautiful scenery of each season. The special exhibition included a display of "Kumihimo" (braided cords), which appeared in a hit animated film, and a corner where visitors could actually try making braided cords. A model of a Takayama Festival float, designated an Important Tangible Folk Cultural Property of Japan, was also on display, entertaining visitors. Furthermore, in conjunction with the cultural exhibition, Teppanyaki > offered a special "Takumi" lunch and dinner course menu featuring Hida beef, proactively promoting the traditional culture unique to Hida Takayama.
