Views of Mt. Fuji

Mt. Fuji, symbolic home to Japanese people, became aWorld Cultural Heritage site by virtue of its beauty andbeing a source of spiritual as well as artistic inspiration.
Experience all the joys of uniquely viewing Japan’ssacred peak from Sengokuhara and Moto-Hakone areas.

Point 2Shrine and Temple Etiquette

Shrines are dedicated to Shinto gods, and temples
to Buddhist figures such as bodhisattvas and various
incarnations of Gautama. In both of these sacred places
you should move and act calmly and speak quietly.

1

Bow slightly before enteringa shrine’s torii or a temple gate

The ground and space beyond a shrine’s torii or a temple gate
are considered sacred. Bow slightly before passing through torii
or temple gate. As the center of the shrine walkway is the pathof a sacred being, visitors should walk slightly to the right or left.

2

from Mt.Kintoki

Rinse hands and mouth at thechozuya (ritual ablution pavilion)

After passing through shrine or temple entry, you’ll find a small pavilion
for rinsing hands and/or mouth before you step up to the sacred space
occupied by shrine god or Buddhist deity.
Perform the ablution in five simple steps:① with your right hand, dip
the ladle into water and rinse your left hand; ② switch hands and rinse
your right hand; ③ take the ladle with your right hand and pour somewater into your left palm, and raise that cupped water to your mouth andrinse (taking care that your mouth does not directly contact any part ofthe ladle); ④ pour water onto your left hand to cleanse it; ⑤ raise theladle cup straight up, perpendicular to the ground, to let the remaining
water pour down the handle and clean it, and then return the ladle to its
original spot on the fountain, face down.

3

Offering Ritual: Ring bell and tossmoney into offering chest

These days coins or bills are used as an offering to deities. In thepast, these were made in the form of rice. There is no set amountto offer, so you should decided how much to give according to
your wish or prayer, purification ritual, gratitude, or other matter.
Temples usually don’t have a rope pull, but if there is one, do as
in a shrine; if none, make your silent pronouncement and tossgently into the slatted grate atop the offering chest.
from Owakudani

4from Lake Ashi

Shrine Salutation: Bow twice, clap
twice, and bow once to greet the deity

Bow deeply before a shrine’s outer sanctuary and then maketwo bows, each at a 90-degree angle. Raise hands to chest
center, Western-prayer style, and clap twice at a shrine but
not a temple. Return hands to chest center and pray. Lower
hands to sides and bow once, at a 90-degree angle. Bow
again, deeply, and step back.

from Mt.Taikan

5

Shrine and Temple Option:
amulet or paper votive

After making an offering, many visitors stopby a building where votives and amulets are
sold. They also often draw paper fortunes. An
amulet is worn to receive the deity's blessing;a paper votive is read to learn one’s fortune.
You also have the choice, according tocustom, to tie the paper votive on a branch ofa tree—on temple or shrine grounds—or you
can take it home.

Distinguishing points of a temple■ Temples usually do not have torii but aformal structure of wood, often two stories
high, as their gate. Bow slightly before
passing through the overhead structure.
■ When making offerings or praying at a
temple, do not clap the hands. Bow deeply
and then bring hands together, chest center(Western-prayer style), as you make yourpronouncement.
(with thanks to Hakone Shrine)

Rooms and Tatami Mats
■ A Japanese-style room is one laid with tatami mats.
One appealing feature is the rooms may be used for many
purposes, such as a living room, bedroom, or guest room. A
single tatami mat is roughly 180 cm x 90 cm, and is counted as
1 ‘jo’ (a specific Japanese counter for tatami mats).
■ Tatami mats provide Japan-style flooring. The face of tatami
mats is woven grass, meaning they are highly absorbent,
warm in winter, and cool in summer. Their fragrance also has arelaxing effect.

A yukata is a traditional type ofJapanese clothing, often wornafter bathing or while sleeping.
Be sure to cover your body firstwith the right-hand side, thenleft-hand side. When staying
at a ryokan, you’re welcome towander around in yukata.

Onsen FAQs
■ Onsen water can be quite dense and the heat intense, so
avoid getting dizzy by limiting your time: don’t soak too long (nomore than 15 minutes). Immerse yourself up to neck or waist,
no deeper, and be sure to hydrate before and after a bath.
■ Bath water may have some “floaties” that are natural mineralcomponents, not trash or filthy bits, so don’t worry if somethingtiny comes your way.
