JICA tour on 6 May

We had JICA tour on May, 6th. Our troop consisted of 3 Cambodia guests and 11 TENGU guides, it was so gorgeous. It was held in the Golden Week, the most crowded week in Japan, so we took “personal supporter system” today because it was protection for a stray person.

It was a fine day and a lot of kind young leaves are so beautiful. It was warm enough to make us sweat. We guided some points, Sweeper boy, Japanese great flying squirrel, Octopus cedar tree, Joshin gate, Jin Pen hall, Joyful park, TENGU bench cedar, Four heavenly kings gate, TENGU statue, Main temple, Great god Izuna hall. It was not so clouded. We saw beautiful Mt. Fuji on the peak and have lunch. We enjoyed so much.

People can eat Shojin cuisine with no appointment in monk’s restaurant of Yokuoin temple. There is a signboard for it, "Young leaves dish". We felt the temptation to go there and eat it today.
