Homestay Day 5-Japanese Style Tea House

丈山苑(Jyou Zan En) is Japanese style tea house in Hekinan city. The scenery there was superb and it is unbelievable that we still able to see maple leaves at this time. It is a quiet place for a person to relax and cool down while sipping a cup of tea and eating delicious Mochi. There were no other customers there. If the tea house is in Kyoto/Tokyo, it would be crowded all the time. 詫び寂びの一番いい場所
