A Journey Through Fragrance | Traditional Incense Ceremony in a Historic Japanese Villa
Uncover one of Japan’s most elegant and lesser-known cultural traditions with an immersive Kodo (incense ceremony) experience at the Tamesaburo Memorial Museum in Nagoya. Once a private residence of a renowned patron of the arts, this registered cultural property offers the perfect setting to explore the spiritual and sensory world of incense appreciation.
During this 500-year-old tradition, once practiced by samurai and aristocrats, you’ll learn to identify subtle differences between aromatic woods in a refined incense game that sharpens your senses and promotes mindfulness.
Guided by a Kodo expert active internationally, the session offers deep insights into the techniques and philosophy behind this meditative practice. Surrounded by a tranquil Japanese garden and traditional architecture, this experience provides a meaningful introduction to the delicate beauty of Japanese culture.
