■ A special experience to see the national treasures and important cultural properties of the World Heritage Site Nishi Honganji Temple that are not normally open to the public
Nishi Honganji is the head temple of the Jodo Shinshu Honganji sect, whose founder was Saint Shinran. This year, it is celebrating the 30th anniversary of its registration as a World Heritage Site and the 800th anniversary of the founding of the sect. To commemorate this, the autumn light-up event at Nishi Honganji is planned and directed by the creative company NAKED, INC. At this event, you can experience the history and culture of Nishi Honganji by holding the artistic lantern "NAKED Distance Lantern," which is popular at NAKED events, and visiting the national treasure Miedo Hall decorated with digital art and the national treasure Hiunkaku, which is usually closed to the public. We would like to introduce the following three special experience plans.Nishi Honganji TempleSpecial ExhibitionLINK KYOTOtempleKyoto sightseeingKyoto culture

[Arts and Culture Lecture] Gion Hanamachi Art Museum "The Beauty of the Gorgeous Maiko and the Arts and Culture of Gion"
Gion Kobu in Kyoto has a history of several hundred years. The special existence of "geiko" and "maiko" is made up of the best of Kyoto's various traditional crafts and traditional performing arts. Preserving the unchanged Hanamachi culture since ancient times leads to the passing on of precious traditional techniques. Geiko and maiko are also communication professionals. Their beauty comes not only from their appearance but also from within. Experience the quintessence of the Japanese culture that Kyoto is proud of around the world by experiencing the carefully passed down craftsmanship and the spirituality of geiko and maiko who cherish every single gesture and etiquette.SDGs area of this content
