Product Info

Enjoy a special experience at a temple in Chitose, located about 7 minutes by train from New Chitose Airport. Under the guidance of a head priest who trained at Mount Koya,
you can experience Ajikan (Ajikan – The Sacred Meditation of Mount Koya's Monks), a meditation method passed down through the Shingon sect.
Ajikan is a meditation method that you can practice anywhere once you have learned it.
You can use it to balance your mind and body whenever you need to, even after your trip ends and you return to your daily life.
The lessons learned from this experience will be the best souvenir you can give yourself.
Ajikan is one of the ascetic practices inherited from Mount Koya, a World Heritage site.
You can enjoy this experience right here in Hokkaido.
If you enjoy it, we highly recommend visiting Mount Koya as well.
The experience also includes a Shojin Ryori lunch featuring seasonal ingredients.
Since no animal products are used, vegans and vegetarians can enjoy this traditional Japanese temple cuisine with peace of mind.
Take a moment to step away from your daily routine, calm your mind, and discover the depth of Japanese spiritual culture.
