Activity

Kokura Castle is one of Japan's most interesting castles

Kokura Castle is the symbol of Kitakyushu and strives to be one of the most fascinating castles in Japan.
It is also one of the largest castles in the country! Built by samurai lord Hosokawa Tadaoki, construction took place over seven years, starting in 1602.

Learn about the connection between the tea ceremony and samurai lord Hosokawa Tadaoki

Hosokawa Tadaoki, also known as Sansai, was one of Sen no Rikyu's outstanding disciples, part of the renowned Seven Sages, and had a profound understanding of the Japanese tea ceremony.
Enhance your appreciation of traditional Japanese culture and history with this immersive tea ceremony experience.

Take the memories home with you!

After the tea ceremony, take home a piece of Agano ware as a memento of your experience.

Introduce tea ceremony culture into your life

Shiro Terrace, Kokura Castle's souvenir shop, offers Agano ware, tea cups, and more.
Why not bring a bit of tea ceremony culture into your own home?
