Experience Elegant Tea Ceremony and Calligraphy in Kyoto

Visit Nishiki Orizuruya, a beautiful 100-year-old traditional house just one minute from Kyoto’s famous Nishiki Market. This peaceful and cultural experience lets you wear a kimono and take part in a real Japanese tea ceremony, led by a kind and experienced tea master. You’ll enjoy freshly made matcha (green tea) along with traditional Japanese sweets, in a quiet and elegant setting that feels like stepping back in time.

You can choose just the tea ceremony or add other fun and creative activities:

• Japanese Tea Ceremony 

• Calligraphy

This is a great way to enjoy Japanese culture in a relaxed and friendly space, right in the heart of Kyoto.
