What this video shows

From the guide “Japanese Tea Guide: From Sencha to Hojicha”: Japanese tea names describe different leaves, growing conditions and ways of processing tea. Sencha, gyokuro, matcha and hojicha are all green teas, but they are not made or prepared in the same way.

From the guide “Nihon Minkaen: A Folk House Walk in Kawasaki’s Ikuta Ryokuchi”: Plan Nihon Minkaen as a walk through traditional buildings within Ikuta Ryokuchi, with time to look at construction and everyday living spaces. The museum brings folk houses into a wooded Kawasaki setting.
