About JURAKU

A 150-Year-Old Nishijin Machiya

JURAKU stands in Nishijin, Kyoto, in a 150-year-old machiya that was once home to a Nishijin textile merchant family and the birthplace of philosopher and art historian Taichiro Kobayashi.

Our experiences make the everyday culture of Kyoto approachable through tea, calligraphy, dashi, sake, and time spent in this historic house.
