茶道とは
日本では古くから、四季折々に咲く花々に恵まれ、常緑樹は神々の宿る神聖な依り代として崇められてきました。
6世紀に仏教が日本に伝わると、仏前に花を供える習慣が広く定着しました。
鎌倉時代（1185〜1333）から南北朝時代（1336〜1392）にかけては、花瓶・香炉・燭台の三具足と呼ばれる三つの供物具を用いて仏前を荘厳することが一般的になりました。
弘法寺について
Koboji Temple was originally established in 816 by the great Buddhist monk Kobo Daishi Kukai as a sacred place for Buddhist chanting when he founded Mount Koya in Wakayama.
After a major renovation in 2014, the temple was beautifully reborn into its current form.
Today, within its serene grounds, you can experience various aspects of traditional Japanese culture in an authentic 24-mat tatami room—where history, tranquility, and beauty come together.
