Sobre esta experiencia

"Himeji Castle" and "Enkyoji Temple", both of which have a history of more than 1,000 years, are World Heritage Sites that must not be missed when you visit Himeji.

The attraction of Himeji castle is its pure white walls, which are called the most beautiful castle in Japan. Also, the inside of the castle still has the equipment used for warfare 400 years ago, when the samurai lived there. You also can't help but feel a sense of historical romance when you see the dignified appearance of the castle.

The tour at Himeji Castle alone would be enough to satisfy you, but afterward, we will take a bus and a ropeway to Engyoji Temple on Mt.Shosya. The temple is one of the largest temples in Japan and has many cultural assets designated by the government. Once you step into Mt. Shosha, you will be overwhelmed by the serene mountains and feel a sense of purity.

You will be able to enjoy both areas without missing any of the highlights, as your private guide will efficiently explain and help you move around. Let's have a meaningful and great one-day tour of Himeji!

    Himeji Castle, a world-famous castle, is both beautiful and strong in appearance, and was the first historical building in Japan to be registered as a World Heritage Site.

    It is a mountain temple where you can enjoy a unique landscape that combines traditional Buddhist architecture and mountain nature.You will surely be impressed by the sheer size of this structure, built in the middle of the mountains in the days when there were no cars or electricity!
