Okutan Nanzenji

南禅寺 奥丹

O

PRESERVE Selected

Founded in 1635 beside Nanzenji temple as a rest stop for pilgrims, Okutan is Kyoto's oldest tofu house, still making fresh yudofu daily in a rustic thatched-roof setting among temple gardens — a pure expression of Zen simplicity.

A 390-year-old shojin-rooted institution that does one thing only; reverence over spectacle, not a modern photo-op.
