💗💚~~Hello, this is Tea ceremony and Calligraphy shop Waplus Nara~~💚💗
We have received some questions from customers, and we love that!
Today also we got it. They asked us “when did the tea ceremony become popular among women?”
That is a good question!
Originally , the tea ceremony was for men, but women started it since Meiji Period. It was infruenced by
the Japanese Meiji Enlightenment. And it was introduced into the girl’s school. The reason is to learn
beatiful etiquette and kindness for people through the tea ceremony. After Edo Period,the women need
to acquire culture. Yae Niijima who is a wife of Jyo Niijima also learned the tea ceremony, and spreaded
it. So it was from Meiji Period through early Showa Period that the tea ceremony spread rapidly among
women. Now, both men and women enjoy it. The tea ceremony is a Japanese beautiful and important
culture,so we hope to keep it to our future.
We hold three sessions daily at 10:00 AM, 1:00 PM, and 3:00 PM.
Why don’t you come and experience a beautiful tea ceremony?
We look forward to seeing you💚💗
