Last year's popular event, Autumn Leaves Illumination, which enhances the beauty of autumn nights, will come back to the Kanda Shrine.
This year, a new setting for open-air tea ceremonies, "Nodate," will be illuminated and make the shrine even more beautiful.
It marks the 1300th anniversary of the founding of Kanda Shrine and expresses the theme of tradition and innovation.
Enjoy the charm and harmony into the autumn nights' atmosphere with the combination of traditional Japanese tea ceremonies and new technology.
Since ancient times, tea ceremonies have been appreciated every season because tea can be enjoyed anywhere. This time, we will invite you to experience not only to see the beautiful scenery of ginkgo trees but also to have tea in the landscape and experience the fall season with all five senses.
The tea master this time is Sobin Koizumi, who has passed down the great tea tradition until this time.
Sobin Koizumi:
She has been working with the Urasenke school, one of the main schools of Japanese tea ceremony, since 1975. Since 2002, she has started holding tea ceremonies in Taiwan, China, France, the US, and other countries, including private activities called “Chidori no Kai” and “Futaba kai” that aim to share Japanese culture and tea ceremonies.
She has advocated for “Introductory Tea” with the belief that the "a tea ceremony has a wide entrance and low threshold” and plays the role of “peacefulness.”
We hope you can join us for the first experience of "the world of Japanese tea ceremonies" called Chanoyu and get the opportunity to explore the depth of the Japanese tradition.
