Camellia Tea Ceremony
@camelliakyoto@mastodon.social  ·  activity timestamp 9 months ago

In part thanks to the current head, Nishikawa Genbō (西川玄房 *somewhat of a celebrity in his own right*), Tōrin-in has become well known for its (vegetarian) 'devotional cuisine'.

Fresh vegetables are grown behind the temple, and classes are held each Tuesday.
