Highlights

Step into a traditional Kyoto machiya and experience ryurei, a formal Japanese tea ceremony performed in a graceful seated style. Discover the customs and etiquette that shape each stage of the ceremony, from the careful preparation of matcha to the thoughtful gestures that reflect Japan’s culture of hospitality. As you observe and take part in this time-honored tradition, gain a deeper understanding of the four core ideals of tea: harmony, respect, purity, and tranquility. More than simply enjoying a bowl of matcha, this immersive experience offers a glimpse into the Japanese philosophy of finding beauty, mindfulness, and connection in everyday moments.

Ablauf

  1. Kyoto is the cultural capital of Japan and the origin of many of the country's cultural practices. One of these is the art of tea, or chanoyu. Visit a beautifully renovated old-style Kyoto house, transformed into a Japanese teahouse and gallery with a unique Taisho Roman-meets-Art Deco design. Originally from Canada, your host, Randy Channell Soei, is a professor of the Urasenke school of tea ceremony, he holds the highest rank of any non-Japanese tea ceremony teacher in Japan. He will introduce you to ryurei, a formal style of tea ceremony dating back to the 1870s. Randy also spent years working with local Kyoto farmers to develop his own original matcha, which you’ll have the opportunity to taste. Through the ceremony and hands-on guidance, discover traditional tea etiquette, hospitality, and the four ideals of tea: harmony, respect, purity, and tranquility.

About Kyoto

Kyoto, über tausend Jahre Japans Kaiserstadt, ist eine Stadt der Tempel, Gärten, Holzhäuser und verfeinerten Traditionen.

Die Stadt beherbergt viele der kostbarsten Stätten Japans. Tausende zinnoberrote Torii-Tore des Fushimi Inari Taisha steigen einen bewaldeten Berg hinauf, der Goldene Pavillon des Kinkaku-ji schimmert über seinem Teich, und die hölzerne Bühne des Kiyomizu-dera ragt aus dem Hang über der Stadt. Der Felsengarten des Ryoan-ji und das moosbewachsene Gelände des Ginkaku-ji laden zur stillen Betrachtung ein.

Top-ranked sights in Kyoto: Fushimi Inari Shrine (Fushimi Inari Taisha), Kinkaku-ji (Golden Pavilion), Kiyomizu-dera Temple.
