Tea Ceremony
When I came to the building of tea ceremony, the outside of the building seemed more modern than I expected, but it had genuine traditional Japanese architecture inside of the building. All made of bamboo and wood; they had a calligraphy in Japanese. As Spanish and European languages are similar to English, Korean, Japanese and Chinese have languages related to each other. I tried to read it but I could read only the first one (meaning: one).
I usually enjoyed drinking tea a lot. My favorite tea is green tea. I used to drink it instead of water in high school year, so I was so excited about tea ceremony. The tea master explained about history of tea ceremony and told us to relax when you have tea ceremony. I was a big sister in tea ceremony. I was nervous so much!!!!!!!! What if I do not understand what he tells me and do it wrong? What if everyone does it wrong as they follows me? But unlike my thought, tea master explained me so kindly how to turn the bowl properly and how to bow in tea ceremony.
The tea was darker than I expected and I really liked it and I really liked the cracker too. Everyone expected the colorful sweets but I tasted before it . I did not like it :( Unfortunately, the tea master told us that the cracker is from Tokyo. I really enjoyed the tea ceremony. I could relax in there.
