A park with a water mill where you can enjoy tea in a Japanese garden and teahouse
Water Mill Park and Tokusuitei Pavilion
There are two areas in the park: the rice paddy area, which preserves the good old Japanese rural landscape, and the Japanese garden area, which reminds one of Kyoto.
In the paddy field area, you can see the mechanism of the waterwheel, which is a reproduction of the top-hung waterwheel that was commonly used in the past. Depending on the season, elementary school students from the neighborhood plant and harvest rice in the paddies. In the Japanese garden, visitors can enjoy the scenery of the four seasons. The tea house in the garden, Tokusuitei, has two rooms: a shoin-style hall with a view of the tea garden through a yukimi-shoji screen, and a rustic-style booth with a shikiri-gate, which can be used for tea practice and tea ceremonies. These rooms can be used for tea ceremony practice and tea ceremonies.
