    As the dusk paints the mountains, retreat to the tranquil lodgings of Minobu-san. Upon arrival, savor a meal of vegetarian dishes crafted with seasonal blessings and heartfelt care. This plan is for dinner only, allowing you to enjoy a relaxed morning without any rush. Unwind both body and mind while attuning to the presence of the mountains. Spend such precious moments nestled in the heart of Minobu-san. Dinner (19:00〜) Enjoy traditional vegetarian cuisine in the dining hall. The word 'shojin' in 'shojin cuisine' signifies dedication to spiritual practice. It represents meals traditionally consumed to support diligence in Buddhist teachings. Shojin cuisine is a genre of Japanese food deeply influenced by Buddhist principles. Based on Buddhist precepts, it is prepared using only plant-based foods such as vegetables and grains, without using any animal-based ingredients. Rooms The guest rooms are traditional Japanese-style rooms separated by shoji screens and fusuma sliding doors. Bathrooms and toilets are shared facilities. About the temple lodging Habanobo is a historic temple lodging located on the eastern edge of Mount Minobu. The term 'Haba' signifies 'beginning,' symbolizing the first step on the path of Buddha. It was founded in 1280 (Kōan 3) by Shijo Kingo Yorimotoko, the personal physician of Nichiren Shonin during the Kamakura period. The current main hall was rebuilt in 1990 (Heisei 2) and enshrines Nichiren Shonin, Shichimen Daimyojin, and the couple Shijo Kingo, believed to bestow blessings for healing illnesses. Additionally, it is situated in a quiet elevated area, offering a view of Mount Takatori in front and providing the only view of Mount Shichimen among the temple lodgings in the area. It is cherished as a place to refresh the mind and body in a tranquil environment, whether visiting alone, with family, or as a couple.
