Sipping tea while enjoying opera—tea in the teahouse, opera on the stage—reflects the romantic lifestyle of ancient Chinese society and has become a novel form of social interaction today. As the scent of tea wafts through the air, the Junwangfu Hotel echoes with traditional melodies and captivating performances. Peking Opera, Yue Opera, Nanyin music, and folk instrumental ensembles take the stage in turn. Between performances, visitors can experience Song-style whisked tea, Chaozhou gongfu tea, and the craftsmanship behind West Lake Dragon Well tea at the Yinan Hall, gaining a deeper appreciation for the cultural richness of tea.
From “Tea and the World” to “Tea and the City” and “Tea and Culture,” Chaoyang District has hosted the Tea Culture Festival for three consecutive years, consistently promoting the theme: “Sharing a Cup of Fine Chinese Tea with the World.” The event continues to elevate Chinese tea as a cultural symbol that speaks to the world.
Once, the fragrance of tea traveled the ancient Tea Horse Road and the Silk Road to reach distant lands. Today, tea is grown in more than 60 countries and regions, with over two billion people worldwide enjoying it.
“With Chaoyang’s tea, we welcome friends from around the world.” Chaoyang District extends a warm invitation to global friends to join us in savoring fine teas and traditional operas.
