-Itinerary introduction-

The tea ceremony comes from Zen temples, and the tenets of "Zen" can also be realized from the tea ceremony, such as: simplicity, ephemerality, peace of mind, enjoyment of the moment, no desire, no criticism, harmony with nature, selflessness, and connection with the universe. In the busy life, you might as well enjoy the peace of mind through the tea ceremony.
