This experience is unique because it combines two of Japan’s most iconic traditions—kimono dressing and a formal tea ceremony—into one immersive cultural activity in the historic setting of Asakusa. Rather than simply observing, guests actively participate, learning proper etiquette, symbolism, and the philosophy behind chanoyu. Taking place near Senso-ji Temple in a district where old Edo atmosphere still lingers, the experience offers an authentic and intimate setting that contrasts with modern Tokyo.

What to expect

Immerse yourself in the historic charm of Asakusa with this elegant kimono and tea ceremony experience. Located near the iconic Senso-ji Temple, this cultural activity offers a chance to connect with traditional Japan in one of Tokyo’s most heritage-rich districts. Begin by selecting a beautifully crafted kimono from a range of seasonal designs and colors. With guidance from experienced staff, learn how it is properly worn and discover the meaning behind its patterns and accessories.
Once dressed, enter a serene tea room to take part in a traditional tea ceremony, or chanoyu. Guided by a knowledgeable host, observe the graceful preparation of matcha and learn about the principles of harmony, respect, purity, and tranquility. You’ll also participate, practicing proper etiquette and enjoying seasonal sweets with freshly prepared tea.
