While the busy streets of Tokyo are exhilarating, the more serene side of Japanese culture promotes more peaceful experiences. Swap the chaos of the capital for a relaxing 1-day cultural immersion retreat in the countryside, during which you’ll enjoy multiple activities without having to book them separately. Highlights include zen meditation, a tea ceremony, a cooking class, incense making, and much more.

Encounter the Spirit of Edo in Tokyo’s Fukagawa. Just six minutes from the bustle of Tokyo Station, nd serenity at the venerable Tomioka Hachimangu Shrine. Here, you will witness a sacred Miko dance and immerse yourself in the luxury of experiencing Kabuki, one of Japan’s most celebrated traditional performing arts. The lingering impression is elegantly completed by a seasonal Edo-style dish crafted with masterful skill. A once-in-a-lifetime story of beauty—experienced with all five senses, and with the heart.

Amazing and relaxing experience. Eriyo is extremely knowledgeable about incense and will teach you breathing techniques along with mindfulness. The place is like a gallery with many objects related to incense in various cultures from all over the world. The experience is not only about Japanese incense but also incense culture from all other the world. In addition, you will learn how to enjoy (more precisely "listen to") incense prepared in the traditional Japanese way. The experience will be one of calmness, serenity, connection and grounding. After the session, you will enjoy great conversation. The great thing about this experience is that you will sit on a chair with comfortable atmosphere unlike tea ceremony. Since the agarwood, called kyara in Japanese is a real treasure because of its rarity, it will be a magnificent experience that you will never forget! Eriyo is happy to customize her incense ceremony according to your request.
