  • Look Through the Heart Teahouse”
    ShinKanAn Teahouse – The “Look Through the Heart Teahouse” 1. Introduction: History and Name • Our Teahouse in unique on the Central Coast. It is a traditional structure, using mostly Japanese joinery instead of nails, traditional tatami mats and hand-made paper sliding doors. Additionally, it is perhaps the only traditional Japanese Teahouse between the Greater Los Angeles area and the San Francisco peninsula, and the only one in California using California natives in an intentional Japanese style. • It was originally built in Kyoto during the postwar period: a wooden plaque on the wall near the entry doors commemorates the architect and the date: 1949. The Teahouse was a gift from the President of the Nippon Oil Company to a local resident, Mr. H. Royce Greatwood, as an expression of appreciation for his assistance after the war. It was shipped in wooden boxes, each piece numbered, and reassembled in Mr. Greatwood’s Hope Ranch lemon orchard in the early 1950’s. This teahouse is evidence of the tremendous efforts that were made to renew the ties of friendship between former wartime adversaries. • The rich cultural tradition of Cha-do, The Way of Tea, graces this teahouse. In 2000, it was given the name ShinKanAn , meaning “Look Through the Heart” by the 15th Grandmaster of the Urasenke Tea school, an unusual event. • The name was generously given in honor of Heartie Anne Look, a teacher of flower arrangement and Japanese culture for many years in the Santa Barbara community. This teahouse is being used and maintained in a manner authentic to the tradition of Cha-do.

In order to answer the following three questions “ whether the current tea culture phenomena can be called “tradition” or not; what are the changes in tea cultural tradition and what are the new features of the current trend of tea culture; what are the endogenous and exogenous factors which influenced the change in the tea drinking tradition”, I did literature research from ancient tea classics and historical documents to summarize the development history of Chinese tea culture, and used two month to do fieldwork on teahouses in Xi’an so that I could have a clear understanding on the current trend of tea culture. It is found that the current tea culture is inherited from tradition and changed with social development. Tea drinking traditions have become more and more popular with diverse forms.

  • Teahouse N I T O
    n i northwest:scale 1/8" t o b teahouse ea.r.thomson 2002 southeast:scale 1/8" N The Japanese Teahouse : Ritual and Form Buddhism had branched after about 600bc, into several distinct teachings. Of these, A Paper for M.Cohen’s Seminar on Architectural Proportion Mahayana (meaning 'big raft') Buddhism worked its way to Tibet, Mongolia, China, Korea May 2002, UBC | SoA and Japan. Of these five regional variations is the 'intuitive' school of Mayahana - or Zen. Submitted by a.r.thomson Zen (strictly literally!) means, 'meditation that leads to insight'. In order to make some sense of the Teahouse design, and more specifically its mode of Mahakasyapa, apparently, was the only acolyte present at The Flower Sermon, who proportioning, scale and materiality, it is necessary to understand something of the context understood. The Flower Sermon, it is said, was one where, "Standing on a mountain with his out of which the ‘Culture of Tea’, aka. ’Teaism’ first developed. This paper will attempt to disciples around him, Buddha did not on this occasion resort to words. He simply held aloft distill some sense of this ambient culture, and then relate the aesthetic of Zen, to the a golden lotus." (H.Smith, pg 134) components of the Teahouse proper, and finally, conclude with an examination of the proportions used in the Teahouse design. UBC’s Nitobe Teahouse was the primary resource Mahakasyapa was declared the Buddha's successor. 28 patriarchs later, in 520ad, studied, which is unique in that it is a ‘traditional’ structure on foreign soil, and thus Bodhidharma introduced the teaching of Zen to Japan.

  • Development of Tea Culture Tourism Resources in Xinjiang Under the Background of "Belt and Road"
    2018 International Conference on Economics, Finance, Business, and Development (ICEFBD 2018) Development of Tea Culture Tourism Resources in Xinjiang under the Background of "Belt and Road" Hongxia Wu Southwest University for Nationalities, Southwest Minzu University, Chengdu, 610041, China Keywords: The "Belt and Road", Xinjiang, tea culture tourism, development. Abstract: Tea occupies an important position among all ethnic groups in China and is an indispensable condiment in people's daily life. In Xinjiang, where multi-ethnicity is concentrated, tea also plays a connecting role in people's life exchanges. Based on the construction of "Belt and Road" as the background, this paper explores the rich and diverse characteristics of Xinjiang's tea culture, and conducts research on its tourism development to introduce Xinjiang's tea culture to the outside world, promoting the development of Xinjiang's tea industry while better promoting Chinese tea culture. 1. Introduction The "Belt and Road" proposed by President Xi Jinping is not only a road to trade, but also a road to culture, a road to tourism, and a road to peaceful development. Under this great initiative, Xinjiang has become a key area of the "Belt and Road" and its diverse tea culture can promote tourism development in Xinjiang. In other parts of the country, tea gardens, tea art, tea ceremonies, tea dances and many other tourism modes have been launched and are popular among tourists. Although Xinjiang is not China's tea production area, it is an important tea consumption area in China. There is a long history of tea in Xinjiang. The different tea cultures formed from the understanding and tea drinking of various ethnic groups in Xinjiang are also the beautiful scenery in the construction of the "Belt and Road", which is worthy of research on tourism development.

  • The Special Relevance of Sukiya Architecture for North American
    HIROO KURANO, AIA This essay focuses on the complex, cross-cultural origin of sukiya architecture as well as how—and why—it manifests The Special a harmonious unity between architecture, gardens and Relevance nature. I first discuss the sukiya tradition in its original context, the tea ceremony (wabicha) of Sen no Rikyū of Sukiya (1522-1591), then I analyze the influence of European Architecture for culture on wabi-style tea. Understanding this history will North American help us comprehend the true meaning of sukiya, and its special meaning for Japanese gardens in North America. Japanese As we know, the Pritzker Prize, “the Nobel Prize of the architecture Gardens world,” has been awarded to many Japanese architects—most recently, to Shigeru Ban (2014) and Toyō Itō (2013). Since Japan opened its doors to Euro-American culture just before the Meiji Restoration of 1868, modern Japanese architecture has been greatly influenced by the West. However, even with this impact, there has remained a strong stream of “traditional” Japanese architecture called sukiya. Yet, sukiya architecture is tied to the first Westerner to play a leading role in the opening of Japan to the West: Francis Xavier (1506-1552), the Portuguese missionary who arrived in Japan in 1549. Sukiya means “tea house,” referring to the structure used for tea gatherings in the so-called wabi-style tea ceremony formulated by Sen no Rikyū. I believe most Japanese architects familiar with sukiya utilize this basic form of Japanese architecture to connect man’s indoor and outdoor lives as directed by Rikyū. To achieve the goal of evolving Japanese gardens in North America by fusing interior and exterior space, it is essential to reconnect the sukiya style with Rikyū’s conceptions of the tea ceremony and teahouse.
