Osaka Senshu Tea Ceremony Experience Gofuso

Kishiwada Castle is the castle closest to Kansai Airport. In Osaka Prefecture, only Osaka Castle and Kishiwada Castle remain with their castle towers, the symbol of the castle. Gofuso is located within the former Kishiwada Castle and is a tangible cultural property designated by Kishiwada City. It features a modern Japanese-style building, one of the few in Osaka Prefecture, and a vast, beautiful Japanese garden. In a tasteful building, the collaboration between Japanese cuisine made by a Japanese food artisan using many local products and art works (sake ware, etc.) by Takahiro Koga, a promising up-and-coming ceramic artist, is a one-of-a-kind experience. In addition, a tea ceremony in a tea room that is usually closed to the public allows you to feel the ancient Japanese spirituality and values. Enjoy an extraordinary opportunity to experience Japanese tea culture, history, and castles near Kansai Airport.
