In this serene capture we see the tea and meditation room at the beautiful and historic Ruriko-in Temple in Kyoto, Japan. Located about an hour outside of central Kyoto, the temple can be reached via train to Yase station. The temple is open for visitation at select times of the year in Spring and Autumn.

The admission cost is currently listed as 500 yen for adults, 300 yen for teenagers and free admission for children. Larger groups must pay extra and there is also an option for a serving of Matcha tea.
