The experience takes place in a quiet traditional tea room surrounded by nature, with a private garden and walking paths where you can take beautiful photos and enjoy a peaceful moment away from the crowds.
Tea ceremony is not something that was originally meant to be experienced in a busy city building.
In a tea room nestled in the mountains, you can truly feel the blessings of nature — the quiet air, the changing seasons, and the gentle sound of birds echoing in the silence.
This peaceful setting allows you to slow down, breathe, and experience in a way that feels deeply natural and meaningful.
It is a special cultural experience that can only be felt in a serene tea room surrounded by nature.
Every detail is carefully curated to offer a refined, personal, and deeply authentic cultural experience — unlike an ordinary sightseeing tour.
