Tea ceremony in a tatami room at a prestigious Kyoto Zen temple

Kyoto has no shortage of thousand-yen tea ceremonies performed for tourists. This is a different kind of morning: slow, quiet, and hosted by monks at a working Zen temple away from the crowds.京都到处是面向游客的千元茶道表演。这是另一种上午:在远离人潮的现役禅寺里,安静、缓慢地度过。接待您的,是在这里修行的僧人。

The morning moves slowly on purpose: a zazen sitting guided by a monk who explains what the posture and the breathing are for, a walk through the temple gardens, and then a full tea ceremony in the temple's own tea room — the setting the ceremony was designed for. Your guide interprets throughout, so the conversation with the monk is a real one.上午刻意放慢节奏:由僧人讲解姿势与呼吸意义的坐禅;漫步寺内庭园;然后在寺院自己的茶室里进行一场正式的茶道——茶道本来就是为这样的场所而生。翻译向导全程陪同,您与僧人的对话是真正的交流。
