Bring the warmth of tea closer to you. “KUMONOCHA” reopened

2022.04.02

The reopening on Saturday, March 26, 2022 is based on the concept of “KUMONOCHA” and Kiyomizudera Sannenzaka store “Relax, tea in Kyoto.” Will change the store style from the previous one and provide you with a relaxing space.

Sanningzaka, the approach leading to Kiyomizu-dera, a popular tourist destination. Also known as Sannen-zaka, about 5 million domestic and foreign tourists visit every year. From Shimizuzaka, take a narrow road and climb for about 1 minute while enjoying the Japanese atmosphere, and you will see a big cherry tree. The scenery is different throughout the year, and you can enjoy the four seasons.

The interior of the store retains the traditional style, but with a modern design represented by Simplist, it is a space that challenges the new Kyoto style. In such a special space, we will prepare a menu that will soothe your mind.

Please spend a relaxing time while watching the tea making of the store staff with feelings, sitting in the open space inside the store and taking a rest, or putting it in an attractive package or furoshiki and sharing it with your loved ones.
