CEREMONY
END of
RESERvations
As NARA Visitor Center & Inn will close on March 31st 2026, we will no longer be accepting tea ceremony reservations.
We apologize for any inconvenienced caused.
The Japanese Tea Ceremony is centered around
HARMONY・RESPECT・PURITY・TRANQUILITY
Despite the rigorous attention to detail in execution, each encounter, each ceremony, each sip is totally unique - and that is what is to be cherished.
For you to capture this special experience and remember for years to come, our tea ceremony is held in an authentic tea room, conducted in English by experienced practitioners in a relaxed atmosphere.
Nara is the ideal place to combine sightseeing with authentic cultural experiences and this is the experience above all else not to miss on your trip to Japan.
Why not enjoy some of our previous online tea ceremonies from the archives?

By learning this more casual tea ceremony style, you will be able to hold your own ceremony anywhere you like with only the minimum of utensils.
