It's in a bookstore and it's air-conditioned and you get tea . You also get a history of calligraphy and how old the practice is. I learned a lot and it was lots of fun and I'm coming back
One world one heart filled with Joy! 🙂

Our kid made the decision to take this class instead of visiting other major tour sites. It turned out to be an excellent afternoon. We not only learned how to write happiness (福), we actually experienced the joy and happiness! Thank our teacher Richard for the wonderful afternoon! Thank you for practicing “one world one heart”!
