Opened in 1993, the Japanese-style EKŌ-House creates an authentic atmosphere of Far Eastern culture. Tea ceremonies, film screenings, language courses and cultural workshops are regularly held here, giving visitors an insight into the traditional Japanese way of life. In addition to Buddhist events, there is an extensive library for anyone who wants to deepen their knowledge. Those who want to experience Japanese culture in a personal atmosphere can book private guided tours. The EKŌ-House is not only an important meeting place for the large Japanese community in Düsseldorf, but also for anyone who wants to experience the beauty and spirituality of Japan up close.
