Japan has an incredibly rich culture, and there are a myriad of ways to immerse yourself in it. The Open the Treasure of Japan! Project takes place in the Mishima area of Shizuoka, and provides participants with some once-in-a-lifetime opportunities to experience this culture in unique ways.
The schedule for the two-day, one night event includes:
- A night tour of the Mishima Taisha Shrine grounds, and a formal night worship ceremony – these are rare experiences even for locals to partake in
- A special viewing of the Wind Ensemble and a traditional Japanese dance performance by Hideki Togi, a musician who is part of the Imperial Household Agency's Music Department
- A premium dinner at Ryusen-en (a registered tangible cultural property) made by renowned chefs using local ingredients
- A gagaku performance, which is a type of Japanese classical music
- A visit to Rakujyuen Garden, which has been designated as a national natural monument and place of scenic beauty since 1950
- A special guided tour of the Sano Museum of Art "Artisans of Japanese Swords" exhibition
This limited-capacity experience also includes overnight accommodation at Fujisan Mishima Tokyu Hotel, and an English-speaking interpreter so that none of the magic is lost in translation.
