This group is made up of workers from all different industries engaged in the construction, repair, and preservation of Kyoto?s shrine and temple cultural assets. Its members form a network of all industries which maintain and manage cultural assets.
The members work toward mutual improvement, training of successors, and the development of social status through observation trips to historical landmarks, cultural asset structures, and handicrafts as well training courses at various lectures while encouraging each other to devote themselves to their studies and playing their part in the protection of cultural assets. They also work to educate and spread information about Japan?s shrine and temple cultural assets while sharing their universal value with the world.
