Geisha and Tea Ceremony in Kazue-machi Chaya-gai Geisha District offers an intimate and personal experience at a compact venue -a traditional Kanazawa townhouse with an authentic tearoom.
The event consists of 2 parts. The first part starts with a tea ceremony led by a tea master in an authentic room over- looking a small Japanese garden, followed by a matcha tea making experience with Japanese sweets. The second part offers a Geisha dancing and taiko drum performance and fun experiences participated by guests, just like an authentic teahouse party or what is called "Ozashiki".
Ask a tea master and Geisha questions and learn about the Kanazawa culture.
The event was held for the first time in Spring 2023 and received many amazing feedback including:
"Honestly, I found the whole experience profoundly moving.
It was beautiful, intimate and something I will never, ever forget."
"We really really loved everything, can’t get the smile out of our faces, wishes it would last even longer."
"Thank you for presenting a geniune experience in such a perfect venue. We enjoyed the intimate environment,
it had the feel of a special event just for us, rather than some tourist show."
"A once in a lifetime experience that felt very exclusive and privileged."
Children aged 6 and under cannot participate in the event.
