Japanese teahouse
Zen tea structure
A Japanese teahouse is a traditional structure designed for the tea ceremony, characterized by minimal, austere aesthetics—low entrances, tatami floors, and natural materials.
The architecture emphasizes simplicity and harmony with nature.
Outside Japan, the term often refers to restaurants or cafés serving Japanese tea and light fare: We stopped at a Japanese teahouse for matcha and mochi.
