The Daigokuden has been restored to its large appearance in the capital of Nara Year and the ruins of the central palace [Heijo Palace]. If you go northwest from the Taikyokuden, you will find "Cafe Kyoan". Experience the tea ceremony here and explore the various tea rooms. First of all, decide the seating order of the customer. If there are four people, it will be a regular customer, a second customer, a third customer, and a last customer. When you enter the tea room, you will be given a signal by a gong. After that, you will enter the room after cleaning your hands and mouth with the Tsukubai in front of the tea room. The entrance of the tea room is less than 1m square! Enter one by one from the regular customer to the last customer through the entrance (small rectangular entrance). The tea room is a different space. First, you will see (appreciate) tea utensils (everything has a name and meaning) such as hanging scrolls, and then sit down at your own seat. The owner (the person who makes tea according to the fixed method <pointing>) comes into the tea room with tools. The tea party is about to begin! During the tea ceremony, the instructor will teach you how to do it in the tea room. At the end of the ceremony, there is a <seeing> of the light tea bowl (Natsume) and chashaku (Chashaku) used by the host. You will be asked to place the tools in front of you in order from the regular customers. The way of <seeing> is surprisingly careful to handle the tools! This may also be my first experience. Let's listen to the "sound" in the tea room! The sound of boiling water, the sound of pouring and rinsing the cassotte and chasen water, and the indescribable impression! At the end of the tea ceremony, as well as when entering the room, after seeing the tools in the tea room, we will leave from the regular customers through the entrance. I'm used to returning home, so it may be easier to get out! Thank you for your hard work! Originally, it is not possible to take pictures in the tea room, but there is a shooting time after the end. There is no doubt that it will look good on Instagram, as it is in front of you, as a customer!
