🎎🍵CAMELLIA TEA CEREMONY🌺🍡
The calm, cold, quiet days of winter are almost over, and the fragrant plum blossoms herald warmer days ahead.
Before the trickle of visitors becomes a flood, let me take the time to show you around our teahouses, and explain what services we offer🙇♂️
🌸GARDEN TEAHOUSE🍁
We began to caretake this magnificent property 8 years ago, and this year marks the house's 103rd birthday!🎉
Located just across the road from Ryōan-ji (竜安寺) in west Kyōto, the teahouse sits amongst lush and mossy gardens.
Although the building is over 100 years old, there has been a property on this site for well over 500 years, residence of the head family that oversaw Ryōan-ji's 'parish'.
Due to their status the family were often expected to act as hosts, so very little has changed🥰

Flower Teahouse sits on Ninenzaka (二年坂), part of a hill that climbs from Kōdai-ji (高台寺) to Kiyomizu-dera (清水寺), one of Kyōto's most popular temples.
