This was a schoolroom inside one of the buildings of the Tenryu-ji Temple. Note the height of the tables and lack of chairs. Sitting on the floor is the order of the day in traditional Japanese culture. The floors are meticulously clean, hence no shoes allowed. Note the artwork on the the sliding doors and the paper used for walls.

A Schoolroom
