Hanami Festival

April 13, 2025 Polish Academy of Sciences Botanical Garden

A good friend and member of our organization helps organize a Japanese spring flower viewing event (Hanami). It was a huge event with gorgeous weather and tons of people. We managed to find a slightly calmer part of the garden and share tea with those who found their way to us.

Flowering trees surrounded the somewhat shaded spot as guests gathered for tea.
Four members took turns making tea on the mats while from behind the scenes we served tea to the guests seated on benches.
Three times unohana chabako, tea from a box, and once ryakubon, tea from a tray.

Aside from perfect weather and a beautiful surrounding, the day was filled with happy and enthusiastic people enjoying the wonders of Spring, and matcha.
