Shizuoka Tea Museum Garden - Tea Ceremony House Shoumokurou and Japanese Garden - The tea ceremony house Shoumokurou and its adjacent Japanese garden are recreations of buildings and gardens designed by the tea master Kobori Enshu. Enshu was famous for establishing the kirei-sabi style of tea ceremony, following the legacy of tea masters Sen no Rikyu and Furuta Oribe. The garden is a reproduction of the East Garden of the Imperial Palace, Sento Gosho in Kyoto as it was in the seventeenth century. Before entering the teahouse you visitors cross a wooden bridge, a transition between the modern buildings of the museum and the past.
