Itinerary

Let's have a special time at Daisho-in, the most historical temple in Miyajima.
This plan offers you a cool experience to wear kimono and play "Tosenkyo", a Japanese traditional game. ​ ​
"Tosenkyo" is an old traditional game similar to "Darts", where targets called "Chou" (means butterfly) perched on the wooden box called "Makura" (means pillow) and a player tosses an opened fan to the target. Scores determined according to the position of the fan, the target and the box.​ ​
It is not just a game of achieving scores, you can also enjoy the elegant act of playing the game and the scoring system based on the Tale of Genji, and moreover, a decoration of a butterfly and a pillow is so beautiful to watch.​ ​This unique game was created nearly 250 years ago in Japan.
The event will be held either at Daisho-in Hall where you can enjoy a panoramic sea view or at Shoseian Hall located in the Japanese garden.
After playing the tosenkyo game, enjoy your 2hour free time walking around Miyajima in kimono.
Depending on weather conditions you may not be allowed to walk around Miyajima. Instead, you can enjoy a photo shooting at Momijino-Ga or at Daisho-in.​ No discounts offered.
