Traditional Japanese Culture in Kunisaki City

Kunisaki City has many temples where you can try out zazen.
Meditating while performing homa in a quiet mountain village will take you on a spiritual journey to discover what lies within.
As you carry on with your busy daily life, do you sometimes feel like your mind is clouded or tired? If, like most people, you do, then we highly recommend trying meditation at a historic temple in Kunisaki City.
Popular training Dojos include Senpukuji Temple, Rurikoji Temple, Monjusenji Temple, and Futagoji Temple.
Meditation practice at Senpukuji Temple is shown from 0:33 in the video. It could become the highlight of your trip to Japan.
Enjoy Delicious Japanese Cuisine in Kunisaki City
Kunisaki City faces the Seto Inland Sea and offers plenty of fresh seafood.
Fish from Bungo Channel are fresh and lean thanks to the warm water of the Pacific Ocean and nutritious water of the Seto Inland Sea.
Yellowtail and mackerel, as well as brand name fish like horse mackerel and Largehead hairtail, are delicious.
Sashimi made from horse mackerel and yellowtail from Bungo Channel is to die for.
Sakurao pork from Kunisaki City is also quite popular.
The pigs here are raised in a stress-free environment, making their meat extremely tender. We recommend trying pork cutlets made from them.
