Accepted Answer

Join an intimate, guided exploration of a Shinto shrine and a Buddhist temple on the east side of Kyoto next to the Arashiyama district. Learn about the philosophies of these two religions and the proper way to visit a shrine or temple. For the key highlight of this tour you will have to get out your Goshuinchō as you'll be able to collect Goshuin. We’ll guide you through the process of collecting these beautiful, hand-written temple stamps—proof of your visit and a unique momento of your time in Japan. (If you don't have a Goshuinchō you will be able to get one at our first stop). We hope to leave you, not only with a beautiful collection of Goshuin, but also a deeper understanding of Kyoto’s spiritual heritage, preparing you to appreciate the many other shrines and temples throughout the city.
