What To Expect
Higashi Hongan-ji Temple
質問: 日本の仏教の伝統において最も重要な考えの 1 つである「浄土」とは何ですか? 日本の「浄土」仏教哲学を見つける場所: この寺院は京都駅から徒歩約 10 分の場所にあり、日本の浄土仏教グループの 1 つである本山です。西洋では禅哲学が日本文化に与えた影響ほど有名ではありませんが、浄土仏教哲学は歴史上、日本の知的および社会生活に大きな役割を果たしてきました。 上流階級に人気があった禅仏教とは対照的に、浄土仏教は庶民に人気がありました。天国、終末論、罪を負った人々の救済という独自の考えがあります。そのため、カール バルトはこれをキリスト教に最も近い異教と表現しました。
質問: 神道とは何ですか? 日本の神道の「汎神論」哲学を感じられる場所: 吉田神社は京都で最も古い神社の 1 つで、今日ではそれほど有名ではありませんが、150 年前までは政府公認の日本神道の総本山でもありました。日本の神道は一般的にアニミズムと結び付けられますが、吉田神社はアニミズムから発展した汎神論的な神道哲学を確立したことで知られ、日本の専門家や研究者の間では最も哲学的に洗練された神道と呼ばれています。ここは私のお気に入りの場所で、他のどの地域よりも神道の教えを深く感じることができます。

A Thoughtful Walk Through Kyoto with an Exceptional Guide

- Review from Tripadvisor
5.00My son, nephew, and I spent a wonderful morning with Hiro on the Philosopher’s Path, and it ended up being one of the highlights of our time in Kyoto. What made this experience special was not just the beautiful temples, gardens, and historic sites we visited, but Hiro himself. He was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and easy to talk to. The pace was perfect—never rushed, never feeling like we were trying to check items off a list. Instead, it felt like spending the morning with a knowledgeable friend who genuinely loves Kyoto and enjoys sharing its history, culture, and philosophy with others. Throughout the tour, Hiro provided fascinating historical and cultural insights while also creating space for conversation and questions. Some of our favorite moments were simply the discussions we had along the way. His explanations added meaning and context to places that we otherwise would have simply walked past. We especially appreciated how flexible and attentive he was throughout the day. The experience felt personal rather than scripted, and he made everyone feel comfortable and engaged. If you are looking for a deeper and more meaningful way to experience Kyoto, I highly recommend spending time with Hiro. By the end of the tour, we felt like we had gained not only a better understanding of Kyoto, but also a greater appreciation for the ideas and history that shaped it. Thank you, Hiro, for a memorable morning, the great conversations, and your warm hospitality. We truly enjoyed our time together and will remember it as one of the most rewarding experiences of our trip to Japan.

5.00Hiro is an exceptional guide and our time with him flew by learning about Pureland Buddhism and Shinto beliefs whilst visiting ancient temples and serene Zen Gardens. Our tour felt more like an inspiring discussion and exchange amongst friends. Hiro took good care to incorporate our interests and we even had lunch together in his favourite restaurant. I'd highly recommend joining this philosopher's tour - a great experience.
Fun, interesting, and educational

5.00Hiro was a wonderful guide, taking us to all of the important places along the philosophers path and also to many of the hidden areas that tourists would likely miss. His knowledge of philosophy and religion really helped educate us. I highly recommend taking this tour.

5.00This was such a wonderful tour! It’s a must. Hiroki was a great tour guide. He’s so well informed, so knowledgeable and so kind. We had a beautiful day. The path of the tour he took us on was beautiful and perfect for us. Definitely wear comfortable shoes. Definitely take your camera because everything is so beautiful. We also had delicious food that Hiroki picked for us. The day was really wonderful and for most of the day it rained on us and it was still one of our favorite tours of our trip. Thank you so much Hiroki! Enjoy for anyone who books this tour :)

5.00We spent 4 days with our “Hero”. His impressive knowledge of japanese history and culture were amazing. Also, he is excellent at time management for the tours, and extremely flexible to make you happy doing what you really wish to do, without sacrificing the quality of the cultural experience. Furthermore, he is very amicable, witty, and funny. We feel like we have known him for years. Can’t wait to come back to Japan for another tour with “Hero”.
Unique experience

5.00Our guide, Hiro, was simply amazing. He had a wealth of knowledge and insight. I really appreciated the philosophical portion of the tour and it was a pleasure discussing different philosophical viewpoints with Hiro. I felt like I was on a journey with a friend. I highly recommend this tour for those seeking a unique intellectual experience vs just looking at temples, of course the temples were lovely as well
