5.00The Chinese Tea Ceremony experience was very interesting and enjoyable 🍵✨ It was a great opportunity to learn about traditional Chinese tea culture and taste different types of tea in a calm and elegant setting 🫖 The staff explained the process nicely, and the whole experience felt authentic and relaxing 🌿 I also bought some tea products there, and the quality seemed very good 👍 However, the prices of the products were quite high compared to what I expected 💰 Overall, it was still a memorable cultural experience and worth trying at least once while visiting Shanghai ✨

5.00Today, I had an amazing experience at this tea ceremony event. It was rich in content, including a tasting session of various teas. During this process, professional guides introduced us to the history and craftsmanship behind these teas, which was truly fascinating. We also had the opportunity to experience the art of diancha (whisking tea), a calming activity that allowed us to fully immerse ourselves in the soothing aroma of tea and the interactive process. Additionally, we got to wear stunning Hanfu, making the whole experience even more unforgettable!
Awesome tea experience

5.00The experience was amazing. They gave you the history of tea drinking, and they explain the different ways to drink the tea and how they are manufactured better than expected.
