Morning tea ceremony. I love tea and during the stay in
Japan I learned to like the taste of their green tea. Japanese collect the tea leafs
while they are jung so the taste is different to the “regular” green tea or the
one I know. This tea is very good for the skin and judging by the way Japanese look
it must be working :D It doesn’t have as deep flavour as the green tea I am
used to but is more light and stronger in taste. Back to the ceremony.. it was
very calming and relaxing. The lady that was demonstrating was explaining every
move she was making, it was all very feminine and beautiful to watch. Part of
the ceremony is that everyone drinks tea from the same cup and that I didn’t
really like. However, I would recommend trying it out as the experience was unique.
Walking in the old parts of Kyoto.
Ramen, again! :D So good!
Midday geiko/maiko show. Listening to the sound of shamisen
and looking at the geishas performing.. This was like out of a movie
experience!
On the way…
Sannenzaka/Ninenzaka street. I love the architecture-very authentic Japanese and all the cute shops.
Evening in Kyoto.
