For many years, they have fostered Buddhism from the continent and harmonized conservative sentiments of the island nation with the Shinto beliefs of indigenous beliefs in the struggling history, and have developed unique Japanese culture. These three locations are within an hour's drive, including Kansai Airport and Kobe. It is fun to visit historic sites by visiting the sights of this place with a guide, understanding the historical meaning of it, and looking at the past and present contacts of Japanese culture. A tour guide car (9 seater) is available. The admission fee and guide meals of the attractions are solved by the guide himself, so the customer does not bear it.
