• From the modern landscape of Tokyo, we invite you on an intellectual time travel through the Satoyama of Chiba, where untouched nature and the remnants of the Edo period remain strong. In the morning, head to the ancient temple of Kasamori-ji, nestled in a deep forest. Climb the steep stone steps to observe up close the structure of the Shihokake-zukuri, the only wooden building in Japan built on rock without using nails. Look down at the magnificent view of Boso from the corridor that seems to float in the sky, and experience the tranquility of traditional architecture in harmony with nature. Next, step into the hall of the local Gyogan-ji Temple to view up close the masterpiece by the genius sculptor Nami no Ihachi, who greatly influenced Katsushika Hokusai's The Great Wave off Kanagawa, and decipher the roots of the Japanese art that surprised the world. In the afternoon, head to the Otaki castle town. Enjoy the town where retro buildings remain. Visit the former Kamaya, a traditional storehouse-style building from the early Meiji period, to understand the life of Old Japan. Next, move to Ichinomiya to explore authentic Japanese art at the Tengu Temple, Iizuna-ji. View another large and dynamic masterpiece by the sculptor Nami no Ihachi, who influenced Hokusai. Then, visit the 1,200-year-old Ichinomiya Tamasaki Shrine, the eastern starting point of the Ley Line. Appreciate the black-lacquered shrine building architecturally and learn about the roots of the Japanese spirit. This is a special, small-group private tour where you can deeply explore the Japanese spirit, traditional art, and local life culture with your own hands and feet.
