プランの魅力 Newly opened 8-tatami tearoom 'Chitose Ruri-An' の画像

Newly opened 8-tatami tearoom 'Chitose Ruri-An' After years of dreaming and planning, I have finally opened my own tearoom, Chitose Ruri-An in January 2024. It can accommodate 12-13 people, but we limit the number of participants to a maximum of 4 to create a quiet and private atmosphere where you can fully enjoy the principles of harmony, respect, purity, and tranquility.

プランの魅力 Ultimate Tea Ceremony Experience の画像
