The Miracle of Green Tea

Do you drink green tea?

We do drink green tea a lot especially in winter. During supper, after that and during a break...

It's been getting more and more popular recently in even foreign countries where people don't use to drink it. Maybe people who adore Japanese food drink it more often.


Japanese food is well know it's very healthy and very popular all over the world.

But I wonder how many people know amazing benefits of green tea?

Green tea is rich in catechin polyphenols. It makes green tea taste bitter and has lots of great benefits. It reduces the risk of serious disease such as cancer, heart attack, high blood pressure and diabetes etc...

The other side, it effective in weight loss, skin care and mouthwash.

I cannot wirte all of details because it's gonna be too long to read.

NISHIYAMA RYOKAN offer complimentary green tea in every room. Some guests asked us if they could get the same green tea we offer.

So we began to sell green tea tea back for them to meet its request.


This tea is mixed two types of leaves from Kyoto and Shizuoka where produce the most green tea in Japan.


This package contains 16 teabags and the price is 600 yen. If you are interested in it, please feel free to ask at the reception!

Travel to another city

I went to small trip to FUKUI prefecture last weekend. for Fukui I leave Kyoto at 11am I arrive there about 2pm by car. I have never been there before this is my first time. I live in kyoto city so I do not have so many chance to watch sea so I really enjoy driving the sea front . Fukui is very famous for sea food and hot spring. The weather is very cold when I was there so hot spring was really nice to keep me warm after the hot spring I had seafood. on the way hope I still feel warm because of the hot spring . I could really enjoy and relax on this small trip. From Kyoto station to Fukui station is 1hour and half by Shinkansen.
