💡 Tips for Visitors

The teahouse requires a separate entrance fee (500 yen, cash only) but is highly recommended for the authentic matcha experience. Visit during early morning or late afternoon for the best lighting and fewer crowds, especially beautiful during plum blossom season (February-March) or autumn foliage (November). The garden is easily accessible via Shiodome or Tsukiji stations, and English signage is available throughout the grounds.
