Hey guys,

I am heading to Japan this autumn and I was wondering If some of you know zen places you can slip in for a day or two as a tourist.
It is my first visit in Japan so I don't have any particular clue about japanese (meditation) culture and it would be great to get some hints.

Greetings

J
