The International Tea Culture Week commenced on April 29 and will continue until May 2 at Prince Jun's Residence, a historic site over 400 years old, located along the Liangma River in Beijing's Chaoyang district.
The event features tea culture appraisal sessions with tea culture inheritors and displays from leading tea brands across China.
Visitors can also enjoy traditional music, dance and Peking opera, creating a unique, immersive experience.
Long Sufang, an inheritor of Chaozhou Tea, said, "I have been actively participating in both Chinese and global events in recent years, as tea culture appraisal activities are frequently held. People appreciate the artistry of tea, which essentially means they appreciate the profound Chinese culture. Wherever there is a need, I am committed to spreading this culture."
This tea culture week uses tea as a medium, opera as its rhythm, and contemporary trends as its allure.
It seamlessly integrates tea culture, traditional opera, intangible cultural heritage, and modern Chinese trends, offering a rich cultural and leisure experience during the May Day holiday.
"We warmly invite residents and tourists to join us at Prince Jun's Residence for a unique May Day holiday filled with the rich aromas of tea and the enchanting melodies of opera," said Zhu Mengjiao, the event organizer from the Chaoyang Culture and Tourism Development Group.
