Tree Tea House

Here are more pictures from Japan.  Takasugi-an, a tea house in Chino, Nagano Prefecture, Japan designed by Terunobu Fujimori.  Maybe not as fancy as the last tree house we posted from Scandinavia but this looks like a great place to relax and enjoy a traditional Japanese Tea Ceremony:
