Why take this tour?

You will make a green tea (Matcha) in an ancient style Japanese tea ceremony room wearing Kimono. We accept walk-ins but it is better to reserve online if you don’t like to wait. In this workshop, a qualified instructor will walk you through step by step of traditional tea ceremony. This is a ritual-like activity where ceremonial tea is prepared and presented to promote well-being, mindfulness and harmony. It is also called the Way of the Tea. Ninja manuals focused on avoiding detection and how to escape if captured. Blowguns, poison darts, and blinding powder were just a few of the Ninja weapons. Five-star shuriken are well-known symbols of the Ninja. Ninja ate vegetarian diets to avoid having body odor.
