Step into a traditional Chinese teahouse in the heart of Guomao CBD, just a short walk from the iconic CCTV Tower. Spend three immersive hours tasting, brewing, and experiencing Chinese tea culture from the inside.

Taste all five major types of Chinese tea, one by one: green, white, oolong, black, and dark. For each cup, your guide explains what makes it different: the color, the aroma, the texture, the aftertaste.

Next, your guide walks you through a traditional 7-step Chinese brewing ritual. Every step has a reason, and by the end you'll actually know what it is.

Feed your own tea pet, a beloved Chinese tea ritual, and the kind of thing people remember long after they've forgotten the itinerary. Join us and you'll find out what exactly it is.

Make two milk teas from scratch. Same leaf, two completely different lives. You'll experience how traditional Chinese tea embraces modern urban lifestyle and is reborn.

Finally, sample pastries from Daoxiangcun, Beijing's most beloved pastry shop founded in 1895. Your guide walks you through the most iconic Chinese pastries during the session.
