Jiufen Teahouse

A trip to Jiufen should include a visit to a teahouse. The Jiufen Teahouse was once used for gold mining operations and then later a Chinese medicine apothecary. It was then acquired by the current owner, an artist who is also passionate about tea. Visitors have a three-hour limit to drink tea and eat snacks. We were also given a demonstration on how to brew the tea. Downstairs is a gallery and store display the owner’s oil paintings and ceramics. #timetotravel #taiwan #taipei #jiufenoldstreet #teahouse

A Stairway to Taiwan's Past and Prese

Perched on the slopes of lush mountains in northern Taiwan, Jiufen is a picturesque village that seems to be plucked from the pages of a storybook. With its narrow alleyways, charming tea houses, and stunning vistas of the Pacific Ocean, Jiufen is a treasure trove of beauty and nostalgia that captivates all who visit.

As you stroll through the bustling lanes, you'll encounter shops selling local crafts, art, and the region's famous handmade Taro Balls - a delicious treat that tantalizes the taste buds. Jiufen's tea houses are a gateway to both relaxation and panoramic views. Sip on freshly brewed oolong tea while gazing out over the mountains and the ocean beyond, allowing the tranquility of the surroundings to wash over you. The view becomes especially enchanting as the sun sets, painting the sky with shades of pink and gold, and the village lights begin to twinkle. The heart of Jiufen lies in its historic alleys, especially Jiufen Old Street. This bustling marketplace is a sensory delight, where the aroma of street food fills the air. Indulge in local delicacies like fishball soup, herbal pork stew, and savory taro cakes as you explore the myriad of stalls and eateries.

It's a place of quiet reflection, where visitors can pay their respects or simply soak in the beauty of the natural surroundings.

Certain elements of the village bear an uncanny resemblance to scenes from the movie, adding an extra layer of enchantment for fans.

It's a place to immerse yourself in a blend of culture, history, and natural splendor, leaving you with a sense of wonder and a yearning to return to its timeless embrace. #jiufen #spiritedaway #trip #tea #teahouse #lanterns

Tea House to chill - Tea Stone

There is no better place to chill than a coffee or tea house and we found a lovely place in the middle of Shenzhen that was away from the hustle and bustle of a big city. The tea house was called Tea Stone and located in the OCT Loft Creative Park. The interior was spacious with high ceiling and had lots of glass window with outdoor views of plants and garden. As a tea house, it had over 20 different kinds of hot or cold tea on the menu, and even over 100 different kinds to purchase! We placed our order and waited about 5 minutes for our drinks. When the drinks came- wow, what a presentation! My tea was brought to me in what they called a “ Moon Flask”, while the crystal-like glass had a spherical ice cube inside . Unlike the usual ice cube we have at home, the spherical shape is supposed to melt slower and therefore have less dilution to the drink. I absolutely want to get this ice maker! Every one around seemed to be enjoying the moment just like us. This was definitely a great place take a break on a hot summer day. Address: 3 Yan Ping Road , OCT LoFT Creative Park METRO- Qiao Cheng Dong Station- walk 10 minutes Hours: 10am-10pm daily #urbanexplorer #shenzhen #wecreate #teahouse

A Cozy tea house in town!

People love coffee shop nowadays. And coffee shop is so easy to be found. But for tea lovers, finding a nice place to take a sip of tea seems not so easy. Tong Tji Tea House is one of the best Tea House in Medan, Indonesia. Here you can find different types of Tea. Jasmine, Lychee, Classic, and so many others. Don't worry about the taste, believe me it's really really good. And not only tea, here you can also enjoy your meal. The main course like Fried Rice, Fried Noodle, Mie Goreng Jawa, Traditional fried tofu, and so many others. If you like spicy food, you'd love what they cook in here. But if you don't like spicy food, you can simply ask them to make the food less spicy, and the taste remains unchanged. For me as a tea lover, this place is a very very good place to find my favourite tea and find something to eat. The price is also good. Yu have to try it. Believe me, you are not going to be disappointed. #cafe #teahouse #medan #indonesia #tea #restaurant #food #drink #sumatra #northsumatra #foodie #meal

Qingyang Palace or Qingyang Gong is not only one of the most famous temples in Chengdu with a lot of history in Buddhism, it's also a park, a garden and has a wonderful Tea-garden, where you can experience local Chengdu tea culture. 🍵 They offer (seasonal) tea and small snacks and unlimited hot water. 💰 Expect to pay about 25-50 RMB, depending on the tea and season. 📍 Close to the subway station Qingyang Palace. The tea garden is in the north of the park. 🕛 It's open from morning till evening. I recommend to spend about two hours there. But you can also sip your tea for the whole day! #fallingforfall #chengdu #teatime #teahouse #sichuan #chinatravel

Hoi An for a day

This is such a vibrant little town. So much history and it has many preserved sites. There are 23 sites you can visit here in this tiny, yet big village. There are booths that sell tickets for $3 that allows you to visit up to 5 sites. My favorite site was the Japanese covered bridge because of the free photo opportunity:). #teahouse #tea #hoian #cafe #deaf #support #supportlocal #localbusiness #deafbusiness #vietnam #travel #travelphotography

Wonderful Teahouse in Guilin Downtown

Zen Tea House close to the Seven Stars Park belongs to a very nice Japanese style hotel in the center of Guilin city. The hotel is very nice, but you can also visit their Café/Teahouse as a non-hotel-guest. It's a nice hideout from the busy downtown and you can relax a little from sightseeing. 📍 Dijiayuan Road 8 in Guilin, Guangxi Province 🍵 I recommend the Matcha Tea Milk, but the coffee is also very good! They have an inside area and also a small outside area with a small balcony. 💰 Prices are fine, calculate with about 50 RMB for two drinks for two person. #bucketlistreboot #guilin #teahouse #cafe #chinatravel

Hidden Teahouse 1973 in Aljunied! 🫖

Chanced upon Teahouse 1973 at Blk 53 Sims Place, a cozy little teahouse just a short walk from Aljunied MRT! They do offer an extensive menu of Penang inspired dishes and western food to accompany your tea 😋 
I enjoyed the Penang Curry Chicken Nasi Lemak ($13.80), which carries just the right amount of creaminess and spice, pairing well with the fragrant coconut rice. You can also choose other proteins if curry chicken is not your cup of tea, such as the Sambal Lemongrass Pork Chop ($13.80). The pork chop was really tender but it was a little overseasoned to me. The portion is really generous - definitely filling and satisfying! Loving the generous shower of crackers that blanketed everything below. 
Soak in the ambience and relax with a pretty little pot of Peach & Passionfruit Tea! 🫖 The tea was light and refreshing with a fruity aftertaste, and you can ask for free water refills too. This pot is good for 2 pax ($5), or there’s also a smaller one at $3.80 if you’re alone. Alternatively, get a glass of Rose Latte ($5) if coffee entices you more. The coffee exudes a subtle floral fragrance and tends towards the sweeter and creamier side, with a side of biscoff biscuit for accompaniment. #food #teahouse #singapore #moreinsg

Tea at the Ningbo Park Hyatt

The Park Hyatt in Ningbo was built on the remnants of an ancient village and retains features from some of the original buildings. One is now the Chinese tea house where is possible to enjoy tea, snacks and even noodles. By making a reservation it is possible to book a private room with tea cerimony performed by staff. While I usually like seating inside, the outdoor court is usually full. A great place in Ningbo for having tea. #tea #teatime #teahouse #oldvillagelifestyle

Tea Serenity

The thing that makes Hong Kong the fascinating place it is, is that in the midst of the high pressure dense city life there are amazing pockets of peace and solitude, one of the best is the Central Garden on HK Island and inside the park is the LockCha Teahouse adjacent to the Flagstaff House Museum of Teaware. The museum itself is worth a visit but don’t miss the teahouse attached to it. #hongkong #teahouse #CentralGardenHK #FlagstaffHouse #FlagstaffHouseMuseumofTeaWare
