What is a Japanese tea house called?
A Japanese tea house is referred to as chashitsu. A sacred ritual from the 9th century takes place in a tea house — Japanese tea is prepared and served by ceremony masters that adhere to a strict protocol. Tea houses are made of wood and the floor area is covered with tatami mats, where guests sit during the ceremony.
