For tea devotees, Konnichian is the Vatican of the Kyoto tea world (world tea world).
However, it is not open to the public.
Located behind the Urasenke Center, on Horikawa Dori, it is part of an estate controlled by the organization that runs the foundation.
Within the Center itself, it is possible to see and experience much of the tea atmosphere and history.
Kyoto itself is home to many tea rooms, stores, and sites related to the history of tea.
Many of them can be done on a bike easily.
