Kyoto: Traditional Tea Ceremony

Kyoto: Traditional Tea Ceremony

Wednesday was a busy day for us which is why we are a bit behind with our blog. We started with a traditional tea ceremony in kimonos, had a short dance course in traditional Japanese dance for men (reminded me a bit of Chinese Opera dance) and a nice lunch - all that in a small old Japanese house.

How to drink tea and to casually get out of the traditional ceremony room.

Getting formally dressed is hard.

Next, we went to the Shimogamo shrine. As for shrines, they are really everywhere and there are so many of them so you have to take your choice.
