The Tea Whisk Seller's Legacy
茶筅売りの伝統を受け継ぐ、青竹の宿。
Named after the "Chasen-uri" (tea whisk seller), a cherished winter tradition of the nearby Rokuharamitsuji Temple, Aotake-An captures the scent of green bamboo and the peaceful rhythm of traditional Japanese neighborhood life. This is not just accommodation — it is an immersion into a living community.
