Shiguretei

Historical Monument
One of the six teahouses located in the Kenrokuen garden. The teahouse existed from the time Maeda Tsunanori, fifth lord of Kaga Domain, created the Kenrokuen, and it is believed that it was primarily used for conducting the tea ceremony. The 10 and eight tatami mat rooms on the garden side and the connecting enclosure have been restored based on original ground plans. Until the original teahouse was demolished in the early Meiji period, it stood in front of where the garden fountain is now; the teahouse was rebuilt in its current location in March 2000. Today, visitors can enjoy matcha green and sencha green teas here for a small fee. Many people stop by to have a cup of tea and a Japanese confection while strolling the garden.

  • Not really worth it

    700 Yen and 10 minutes later we got to sit down, drink a cup of tea and eat piece of cake. There is nothing happening, no ceremony, no ambience, just a big room and a bow when the tea is brought.
  • Excellent green tea

    The only reason I am giving them a 2/5 is due to the fact that it is a beautiful tea house in a beautiful location. We arrived for a tea ceremony and they stated they did not do tea ceremonies even...
