An ochaya, while literally meaning “tea house,” is not actually a place solely for drinking tea. An ochaya is a traditional setting in which clients and patrons can come to be entertained by geisha and hosts. Be it through music, dancing, tea ceremony, conversation, and more. Though, the Moonflower takes it to a more modern spin not completely strapped to traditions!Both Geisha and Hosts are people trained in the arts of music, dance, barding, entertaining, etc. We want to offer a space for geisha, hosts, and entertainers to find work, show off their skills and talents, build a reputation, and just enjoy themselves.Various spots throughout the ochaya are available for a geisha or host/esses to occupy and bring in patrons and clients who are interested in the type of services they have to offer.The Ochaya is NOT A BROTHEL so please do not mistaken it for such!

History and Significance of the
Tea Ceremony
The purpose of the tea ceremony is to create bonding between the host and guest and also gain inner peace. The tea ceremony is very important in both Doman and Hingan societies because it used to be practiced only by the elite Zen monks and noble warlords for most of history. However, the ceremony has seen some decline.


The art of the ceremony has now been passed down to artisans such as the Geisha, who have now been tasked to learn many of the old traditions in order to both preserve and showcase the culture of such techniques.
The ceremony itself showcases an elegant and practiced set of instruments and movements. Although, simple in appearance, it may take geiko and geisha many years to perfect the careful and intricate movements. Such is the significance of the art of the tea ceremony.
