Ninna-ji Temple / Shorinan

Gagaku (ancient Japanese court music) viewing in the Shinden.

One Million Yen for One Night: Transcending Time to Converse with History

Ninna-ji, the head temple founded by Emperor Uda. Its prestige is overwhelming, with imperial princes and grandsons serving as monzeki (head priests) for generations until Imperial Prince Junnin in the Keio era. The ultimate experience at Ninna-ji can be had at "Shorinan," a shukubo (temple lodging) open to only one group per day. In addition to special viewings of the normally closed Kondo (Golden Hall), etc., private tours by monks, and treasure viewing, there is also a dining experience in the "Shinden." Experience the value of the World Heritage site Ninna-ji and enjoy the luxury of placing yourself in eternal time.
