Host waits in kimono in the square, Marugamemachi

Why it is on this site

It fits easily into a short call: the arcade is in the city centre, between the castle and Ritsurin Garden.
The host demonstrates the ceremony and teaches how to behave in a tearoom and drink the tea, and the matcha, sweet and utensils are included.
Groups are small, up to five people.

Best for

Travelers with a spare hour between the castle and Ritsurin who want a brief, calm cultural stop.

Think twice if

With 2 reviews and a two-sentence description the record is thin, and the meeting point is only 'the square' where the host waits in kimono, so confirm the exact place.
