Suikin-Kutsu
Drops of water from a wash basin
create an exquisite sound as they
resonate inside a pair of jars,
representing the positive and negative,
which have been buried in the ground.

Suikin Sogakudo Concert Hall

The interior of this concert hall
was designed by Fujii Kisaburo,
the same person who built the
Suikin-tei. His efforts have helped
us to achieve acoustical qualities
that are on a par with those of noted
concert halls throughout the western
world. The hall combines the best of
Japanese and western techniques and
serves as an especially warm art space.

Sanpuku-an Forest and the
Museum Sanpuku-an
In accordance with our concept
of "Forest and School" we advocate
a positive action program we call
"Let's Make a Forest." One sample
of the efforts of this program
would be the Sanpukuan Forest.
In this forest, you can find fossils
of a silicified wood that are over
100 million years old. There is also
a grand crape myrtle tree that is over
500 years old. The Museum Sanpukuan,
a center for the dispatching of art,
is also located within this forest.....

Ethnic Instruments Museum
Our collection of ethnic instruments,
most of which come from the countries
of the Far East, is one of the finest
collections of its kind in Japan.
Some of the instruments included in
the exhibits are of the "national
treasures" class. Both the scale and
the content of this museum make it
definitely worth visiting.

Shichigashuku Campus at
Miyagi Prefecture
continuation;
Our theme is coexisting with nature.
Appropriately our Shichigashuku Campus
in Miyagi Prefecture is surrounded by
nature in its location on approximately
300,000 m² of pristine agricultural and
forest land. The "Republic of Water and
Greenery" that we have established there
is governed by President Hironaka Heisuke,
the famous mathematician, and his vice
president the talented actor, Sugawara Bunta.
In this presidential prefecture, you can find
the Tower of Sun and Wind, a ceramics studio
with a wood burning kiln. The area closely
resembles an old-fashioned Japanese home.
Natural agricultural activities include
cultivating rice and vegetables grown without
any agricultural chemicals. The campus is fully
utilized as a place for students to learn from
nature through first-hand experience.
