建仁寺 写経体験
Filed underGion & Southern Higashiyama
Kennin-ji's shakyo experience runs on weekdays only and takes about 60 minutes, copying the Heart Sutra. The fee is 3,000 yen including a goshuin stamp and a Kennin-ji clear file; places are limited to 10 on a first-come basis, with no advance booking — apply at the main hall reception on the day. Elementary-school children and younger cannot take part, and junior-high students must be accompanied by a guardian.
