Places to Visit: ◆Temple 1, Ryōzenji ◆Temple 2, Gokurakuji ◆Temple 3, Konsenji Temple 1 Ryōzenji: If you are starting your journey here, perhaps you might be interested in buying some of the accouterments – such as sedge hat, wooden staff, pilgrimage book, white pilgrim coat etc. – that people get to show that are making this journey as a henro (Shikoku pilgrim). Enjoy the atmosphere, feel free to take photographs (except for the innermost part of the main hall where the altar is), look at the various buildings and statues, and perhaps take your pilgrimage book to the temple office to have it signed and stamped. Temple 2 Gokurakuji: As you walk along the path, you will most likely be impressed by the large garden on your left and various statues on your right.

Next, go up a flight of steep stone stairs to see the main hall and Daishi hall, the latter which has a statue of Kūkai/Kōbō Daishi enshrined inside. In front of the Daishi hall are many amulets and wooden tablets related to the safe birth of a child.

  【herb & aroma Cocowapot】Make Aromatherapy Spray!

  【About Cocowapot】 Cocowapot classes take place in an 80-year old barn that has been renovated into a classroom where people can heal, relax, and learn about aromatherapy, herb tea, and other teas. The renovated barn has a very retro Showa-style (1926 -1989) feel to it. In this age where society is stressful and we are responsible for our own health, learning about different aromas, herbs, and spices can be beneficial for both direct health benefits, as well as through aromatherapy. Since ancient times, people have been aware of the strange powers that plants (herbs and teas) have, and have pursued them in order to incorporate them into our daily lives and support our health. I believe in the power of herbs and tea, and want to incorporate that wisdom into our modern lives. I hope to show this with as many people as possible, and I look forward to welcoming everyone to my "barn classroom". 【About the Activity】 We will create an aromatherapy spray (30 ml). This easy-to-understand class is perfect for those just beginning to learn about herbs/aromatherapy, as well as those who want to incorporate it into their daily life. Price: 2,500 Yen Participants: 1 - 4 People Necessary Time: Approx. 1 Hour 30 Minutes Activity Days: Depends on the month.

This half-day tour allows participants to experience Tokushima's shrines, traditional performing arts, an old town area, and historical sweets together with an English speaking guide. ♪ 【Bizan Tenjin Shrine】 After a short walk up a flight of stairs, one is greeted with brilliant red color that adorns the buildings of Tenjin Shrine. Dedicated to the God of Learning, Sugawara no Michizane, this shrine attracts many students hoping for some luck to pass their entrance exams.

Enjoy viewing the old shrines and temples that line the streets, and soak up the quiet and peaceful atmosphere. 【Wadanoya】 It’s said that long ago when the lord of the Tokushima domain completed the Tokushima Castle, a sweet called “Taki no Yaki Mochi” was served at the celebration. This sweet, made using the lord’s beloved Kinryosui Spring water, quickly became a hit. More than 400 years later, we can still enjoy the lord’s favorite treat at Wadanoya. In addition to Taki no Yaki Mochi, Wadanoya offers drinks made with Tokushima flavors, including Awa Bancha Tea, Sudachi citrus juice, yamamomo bayberry juice, and more. They also have seasonal items, such as shaved ice in the summer and zenzai (red bean soup with mochi) in the winter. The best part though? The view is absolutely gorgeous! This tiny café features a small waterfall with koi and seasonal flowers, and the traditional Japanese scenery makes it so easy to relax and enjoy some tea and sweets. 【Price per Person】 12,000 Yen 【Minimum Number of Participants】 2 【Meeting Place】 In Front of Tokushima Station 【Inquiries】 Air Travel Tokushima, Inc.

  【Atelier Hazel】Wood Burning Experience

  【About Atelier Hazel】 This workshop was started by a couple, with the husband being a furniture maker and the wife being a wood burner. They operate with the goal of making use of as much scrap wood from their furniture making as possible. They combine the arts of wood resin with wood burning to create unique pieces. By adding wood burning to original wooden pieces, it creates a unique work of art that can differ depending on how the wood burning is done. 【Plan Details】 Wood burning is a technique that uses an electric pen burner or other tool to burn letters or designs into wooden materials. Once you get the hang of it, you can draw letters or designs just like you would with a pencil. A few safety precautions are necessary, but even young children around elementary school age can easily participate! Parents and children can also participate, with parents wood burning the design of the child's drawing. Prices: Castanets/Yo-Yo: 2,200 Yen Photo Frame/Small Flower Vase: 3,300 Yen Case for Baby Teeth: 4,400 Yen Number of Participants: 1 - 5 Necessary Time: Approx. 1 Hour ＊Please come at least 10 minutes prior to the starting time. 【Business Information】 Atelier Hazel Address: Hara 261, Kakihara, Yoshinocho, Awa City (Inside the ART Village) Business Hours: 10 - 17 (Workshop is Until 14:00) Closed Days: Saturdays, Sundays, Holidays Parking: Available (Shared Lot of Approx. 8 Spaces)
