Trial Tour : Explore the beech forest and learn about the history of Daisenji Temple
We took a part in the trial tour on May 16th.
The course of the day was "Trekking: Explore the beech forest and learn about the history of Daisenji Temple".
We drove around on Daisen Parkway and visited a few look-out spots. It was foggy but it made everything look even more fantastic!
Then, we went trking in beech forest. We visited some temples in the area while walking in beautiful nature. We learned a lot about those temples thanks to the guides.
Finally, we got to this giant beech tree!! It took 8 of us to go around the tree. It was standing in the very mystical atmosphere.
The next trial tour will be held on June 22nd (Sat.). The theme of the course is "History of Iron Manufacturing: Explore the village of the best iron manufacturing in Japan"
