If you\u2019re interested in delving deeper into the culture of Japanese tea ceremony, I highly recommend that you wear a kimono from Ya\u00e9 Kimono Rental and head straight to wasako, where you can enjoy an unparalleled tea ceremony experience.<\/p>\n
WASAKO is located about a 5-6 minute walk from the Yae Kimono Rental shop in Asakusa, on the fifth floor of a building. Once you enter the shop, you\u2019ll find a neat shoe rack where you can take off your shoes and store them. Afterward, you\u2019ll step into a spacious and elegant tatami room, decorated in a minimalist yet tasteful style. On the tatami mat, there\u2019s a multilingual tea ceremony guidebook, allowing guests who speak different languages to easily understand the experience. This thoughtful touch makes the experience feel especially warm and welcoming.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

After choosing the tea ceremony package you\u2019d like to experience, a professional staff member will guide you through the tea ceremony process. Now, let me give you a detailed introduction to the steps of this tea ceremony experience:<\/p>\n
Seating posture guidance<\/span><\/h2>\nAt the beginning, the staff will teach you how to sit correctly. If you’re not accustomed to maintaining a seated posture for long periods, they will provide a soft cushion to help you sit comfortably while keeping the correct posture.<\/p>\n
