Yusentei

Yusenitei is good place to relax and admire the awesome view of Japanese garden from the tea room. This tea house is the feudal lord Kuroda’s villa which was renovated and opened to the public in Fukuoka city. Yusentei has a unique  combination of two type gardens that are the tea house garden and the strolling pond garden. The Quaint garden view from the peaceful space of tea house takes your breath away.

The amazing view from tea room

It is an amazing strolling pond garden view from the corner windows of a tea room. In addition, Yusentei offers authentic green tea “Mattha” and Japanese sweets “Wagashi” in traditional tea room with tatami floor and red felt carpet. This peaceful place helps clear your mind.

Feature of tea house garden

Tea house garden is designed by moss-covered ground and quaint pond, created by natural stones to blend with nature. There are only humble tree such as small oak, and Japanese andromeda with sunbeam. Walking after the tea house is peaceful meditation.

Fature of strolling pond garden

In strolling pond garden, the arrangement of natural stones create an elegant view. The pebble beach represents ripples waves and two different gently curved types(bridge and stepping stone) make you realize that simple is beautiful. As other key of strolling pond garden, various kinds of trees are planted and bloom in four seasons, such as plum  blossom in spring and autumn leaves in fall.
It is one of the most sophisticated and elegant garden design in Japanese Teahouse garden that I have ever visited
