- NAKED GARDEN NIGHTS Higashi Hongan-ji Temple & Shosei-en Garden
Higashi Hongan-ji Temple, located a 7-minute walk from Kyoto Station, and the nationally designated scenic spot, Shosei-en Garden.
We offer a new way to spend your nights in Kyoto, enjoying shifting scenery, sake, and tea while wandering through the garden on an autumn evening.
At Higashi Hongan-ji Temple, layers of lights in front of the Goei-do Hall create the image of a giant lotus flower, showcasing a side of the temple different from the daytime.
Beyond that, at Shosei-en Garden, you will tour the 'five scenes,' including the moon floating on Ingetsu-chi Pond, the cityscape of Kyoto viewed through autumn leaves, and time spent in a tea room.
Enjoy the autumn night expressions of the temple and garden, accompanied by beautiful scenery and flavors.
- OHINERI Tea Ceremony [WOM-Way of Matcha – kyoto]
We offer an opportunity to experience matcha in an intimate atmosphere within a 100-year-old traditional Kyoto townhouse (machiya). You can enjoy watching a video introducing Kyoto's tea fields, experience grinding organic Uji matcha using a traditional stone mill, receive a demonstration and guidance on authentic matcha tea ceremony from an experienced instructor, try whisking your own matcha to make a matcha latte, and enjoy seasonal, traditional Japanese vegan wagashi sweets.
