Gen-an is a hideaway traditional tearoom located 2 minutes walk from Ginkaku-ji temple (Silver Pavilion, the world heritage) in Kyoto.

We are holding the tea ceremony sessions for beginners.

In this authentic experience, you will pass through the garden to reach the tearoom just like a real traditional tea gathering,.

In the tearoom, the host demonstrates the traditional tea preparing procedure and you will attend as real guests.
After the ceremony, you can enjoy making your own matcha tea with a bamboo whisk under the guidance.

Experience the authentic way of tea with wabi-sabi spirit, near Ginkaku-ji temple in Kyoto!
