This is an injection-plastic model kit of a scene or item related to the culture of Japan.
It would be hard to find a tea room like this these days, and if you could, you'd probably have to go waaay out into the countryside. But wouldn't it be nice--the sound of the flowing river, the "clack, clack" of hollow bamboo hitting stone, the delicious green tea painstakingly prepared using fresh well water... Molded in green, light brown, and gray plastic, this 1/60-scale Outside Tea Room kit comes with its own real grass--a mixture of timothy and clover! Wet the kit's mat, sprinkle it with the provided seeds, keep it moist, and soon you'll have a small patch of grass. It won't last forever, of course, but you may be able to find replacement mats at your local gardening store, and you can start over again.
This is one of the entries in Kawai Shokai's series of kits of Japanese buildings, stores, and locations that allows you to recreate Japanese landscapes--it's just like being here! (If you're about 2 inches tall, anyway.) From Edo period sights to relatively modern ones, the wide variety of entries allows you to design the layout of your choice (after taking varying scales into account).
