Tea Room ／ Registered Tangible Cultural Property
Shin-an
しんあん
Built in 1929 in Shiba Park, Tokyo, by the sukiya master Ōgi Rodō and moved to Sakai in 1980. Matcha is served at its ryūrei seats, and it can be rented for tea events.
Shin-an was built in 1929 by Ōgi Rodō, regarded as a master sukiya builder. It originally stood in Shiba Park, Tokyo, and in 1980 was donated by Fukusuke Corporation and moved beside the Sakai City Museum in Daisen Park.
The two-storey building has ten tatami rooms including tea rooms, and tea events can be held here. About 15 ryūrei (table) seats let visitors enjoy matcha casually.
A garden roji links it to Ōbai-an and is free to visit; it also holds the former Jōdo-ji nine-storey pagoda, a national Important Cultural Property. The tea rooms are registered tangible cultural properties.
