Field Trip in Kyoto
The students went on a field trip in Kyoto on December 8.
The students tried 'Kyo-Yuzen' ,traditional crafts in Kyoto, and also visited Kenninji Temple with beautiful autumn leaves. They then had a 'Zazen' experience which is a meditative practice in Buddhism.
Feeling really refreshed after 'Zazen', they went to one of the major Japanese sake breweries, 'Gekkeikan' and learnt the history and brewing techniques of sake.
The day went by very quickly but it was a fun and productive one with a lot of opportunities to learn Japanese tradition, culture and technology.
