Reviews of 一元茶馆(荻港古镇店)

Digang Ancient Village, a charming little gem hidden deep in Huzhou, Zhejiang, resembles an old photograph forgotten by time. The winding bluestone paths seem to play hide-and-seek, while the old houses huddle together on either side, like old men waiting in line to tell a story. The most captivating spot is Yiyuan Lao Teahouse, where the aroma of time-honored tea can be smelled the moment you enter. The owner, a living fossil, pours your tea with a smile, as if saying, "Young man, drink slowly, don't burn yourself." Tea costs a lot for tourists, but at five yuan a cup, it's probably cheaper than your emojis. The wooden tables and benches are polished to a shine, creaking when you sit on them, as if protesting, "Gentle, my old bones!" In the early morning, veteran tea drinkers gather in groups of three or four, some playing chess and cards, others chatting and sipping tea. The afternoon sun filters in through the carved window lattices, painting grids on the ground. It's a tourist haven now. You can sit there, use your phone, and still have WiFi signal—a wonderful way to not use your data plan. The slow pace of life in Digang is like a cup of old tea, the more you sip it, the more delicious it becomes. #如歌的旅途 #一周去哪 #古町古村要去

The "Yuanyi Teahouse" in Digang Ancient Town is a century-old teahouse in Digang Village, Nanxun District, Huzhou City, Zhejiang Province. Formerly known as the "Juhuayuan Teahouse", it was built in the Qing Dynasty and has a history of nearly 200 years. The teahouse is famous for its low tea price (one yuan per cup), making it a popular destination for local residents and tourists, and also carrying rich historical and cultural memories. It was originally one of the dozen teahouses in Digang Ancient Town. In its heyday, there were 13 teahouses in Digang Village, but as time went by, many teahouses gradually closed, and now only the Yuanyi Teahouse is still in business. The fourth-generation owner of the teahouse, Pan Pingfu, has been in business for nearly 60 years since he took over in the 1960s. He insisted on selling tea at a low price, and the price of tea water increased from the initial 50 cents per cup to one yuan in 2011, and it has not changed to this day. The teahouse is famous for its tea price of one yuan per cup, and tea drinkers can bring their own tea and only pay one yuan for hot water. Due to the low price of tea, the teahouse suffered long-term losses. Pan Pingfu subsidized the losses by cutting the villagers' hair and facials, charging 15 yuan per haircut. This traditional craft not only maintained the operation of the teahouse, but also became a major feature of the teahouse.
