Imanishi-ke Shoin

4.0

The former residence of the Fukuchuin family, who were the family priests of the Kofuku-ji Daijo-in Temple. In 1924, the Imanishi family, the owners of the renowned Harushika Sake Brewery, inherited it. A very rare extant example of shoin-zukuri architecture from the early Muromachi period, the complex is a nationally designated Important Cultural Property. There is a tea room inside the building where visitors can enjoy matcha green tea, seasonal sweets, and ice cream made with sake lees.

静かな町の路地にあります家族3人で行きましたが、我が家以外誰もおらず落ち着いて見学できました。今西さんの奈良漬けのファンです。

とても重厚な雰囲気が漂っています。お庭も美しく整えられていて緑が鮮やか。お茶と甘味を頂きながら、ゆったりとした時間が流れてくつろげます。
とても静かです✨

一人、まったりと、お庭を見ながら梅ソーダをいただいてます。お茶室や天井の造りが素晴らしい‼椅子も各所に置いてあり、ゆっくり出来ます。
