A Quiet and Elegant Japanese Journey: A Two-Day Trip to Yousen-tei

#FukuokaItinerary Day 1: Stroll through the historic gardens Early in the morning, I came to Yusentei Park in Fukuoka. This garden built in the Edo period is quiet and elegant. After entering the park, walk along the gravel path and a Japanese-style painting will unfold before your eyes: moss-covered stone lanterns, flowing water under a small bridge, and koi swimming leisurely in the pond. All the scenery exudes a quaint charm. Sitting in the tea house and sipping tea, you can see the changing natural scenery of the four seasons, as if time has been frozen in a peaceful moment. In the afternoon, accompanied by the breeze, I participated in a tea ceremony experience course, learning how to greet a bowl of matcha with a calm mind and feel the profound artistic conception of traditional culture. Day 2: Dialogue between Art and Nature The next day, I chose to return to Youquan Pavilion to savor a different perspective. The morning sun shines on the surface of the pond, the water shimmers, and the sound of birds singing complements the garden scenery. I read quietly in the academy in the garden, feeling the leisurely life of ancient literati. In the afternoon, we walked through the alleys surrounding the park, explored local craft shops, and bought some hand-painted ceramics as a wonderful souvenir of the trip. This two-day trip was like a spiritual practice, where I found a moment of peace in the hustle and bustle of daily life. The tranquil atmosphere of Yousen-tei brought a perfect end to my trip to Fukuoka.
