About this tour

20 min by taxi from Shibuya. Up to 20 participants per group. Step into a 700-year-old temple in Tokyo and experience a dynamic journey from quiet sutra chanting to powerful taiko drumming. Start with sutra chanting at Daibo Hongyoji Temple, founded over 700 years ago. A monk will guide you step by step, making it easy to follow even for beginners. In the serene hall, as your voice joins the rhythm, you settle into stillness. With a focused mind, move on to taiko drumming. A professional drummer with 23 years of experience, who has performed at national ceremonies and overseas concerts, will guide you from stance and grip to your first strike. As the group rhythm builds, you will feel a strong sense of achievement and pure joy, connecting with the powerful sounds, history, and spirit of Japanese culture.
