ステキな空間”

本堂での朝のお勤めに参加できたのが何よりも良かったです。若い僧侶の方たちが毎日大変やなぁとしみじみ思いつつ、のんびり部屋食にしてもらってよかったです。

精進料理をなめてました”

精進料理っていうと、ご飯と味噌汁、豆腐と漬物という組み合わせで、量は少なく、でも健康的な食事だと思っておりました。しかし、実際は様々な料理と量がかなりあり、大変満足しました。天ぷらもあり、卵を使っていなくてもサクサクの食べ応えで工夫されてることがわかり、素晴らしいものでした。 お部屋で頂き、高膳が新鮮でした。

가성비는 조금 떨어지지만 사찰숙소만의 갬성~”

고야산까지 가는 험난한 여정(기차, 버스편 등)을 뚫고 가서 그런지 가성비대비 숙소와 석.조식은 그저그런편.
