Overview
Camellia Garden’s striking surroundings make ours one of the most beautiful locations to experience tea ceremony in Kyoto.
The traditional Japanese house, which sits amongst stunning gardens, is now 100 years old. Once a private property, providing tea ceremonies is a way to preserve this important house and give visitors a taste of authentic Kyoto.
Located close to the UNESCO World Heritage sites of Ryoan-ji, Ninna-ji and Kinkaku-ji (the Golden Pavilion), we offer an accessible experience that offers an oasis of calm and complete privacy for guests.
We look forward to welcoming you for a unique, personal and unforgettable experience.
