While there isn’t a strict dress code, we recommend wearing comfortable clothing. Traditional Japanese clothing like kimonos are welcome but not required. It's also advisable to wear socks, as you might be sitting on tatami mats.

We visited twice- once for tea ceremony and once for the sweets making class. The ladies at Chazen are so kind. My young daughters enjoyed the experience. It’s nice to get inside the serene space after the chaos of the shopping and temple streets of Asakusa. The tea ceremony was more of an educational experience where you get a chance to try making the matcha yourself, rather than a long formal ceremony. The sweets making starts with the sweet rice paste and you can form it like dough. After you make the sweets you can make a bowl of matcha to have with it.

Lovely Tea Ceremony
I loved this experience. Right near Sensoji temple too which was very convenient. We took off our shoes, watched a 9 minute informational video that explain the history of matcha, the hand washing process, and more about the ceremony its self. I loved how authentic it was, crawling into the tea room. Chazen (I think that’s her name) was so sweet! She would pause and answer any questions we had. I am so happy we went to this, I’ll never forget this experience! Two cups of matcha and a sweet was more than worth the $22 ish USD! Would recommend 10/10!
