Welcome! Welcome to the diversion of tranquility.

This is a place to put down your phone and take a deep breath. The softness of the tatami mats, the subtle aroma of green tea, and the sweetness of the Japanese sweets will transport you to another world. Do you think that tea ceremony is too difficult, or full of rules and manners? In fact, it is the ultimate Japanese relaxation experience that combines “hospitality” and “preparations”. Every bowl, every ladle, and even the way you walk has a meaning; but the fun part is that when you learn about it, you will say, “Wow! It is part of the charm. In our tearoom, we will guide you in a warm, gentle, and slightly unique way so that even first-timers can enjoy themselves. Reflect inwardly in a quiet space. While making tea, you may notice something deep inside you. Yes, what you will encounter in this experience is “a new and different you”. A cup of tea may be the key to open that door.
