How much do Chaozhou people love tea? They even built a museum for Kung Fu tea

Chaozhou Kung Fu Tea Culture Museum While wandering around the ancient city of Chaozhou, I stumbled upon an interesting niche museum. This place used to be a clan ancestral hall, 'Chen's Ancestral Hall', which was originally built in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, almost 400 years ago, and was later restored to its current state through repairs. Inside is a tea art space with strong local characteristics, where a warm and fragrant tea aroma greets you in the courtyard. The exhibits clearly display the five-thousand-year heritage of Chinese tea culture. While learning about tea knowledge, you can also admire various tea sets and items, starting from the Neolithic era, including tea from the Han dynasty, and mostly tea sets, teapots, and tea stoves, which are either the curator's private collection or inherited from ancestors. After the tour and explanation, the lady will take you to taste tea, usually the local 'Phoenix Dancong'. It is said that there is a kind of 'Duck Shit Aroma', which is a bit bitter to the taste, suitable for cutting grease after a full meal; another is 'Honey Orchid Aroma', which is light and elegant with a sweet aftertaste. The museum has its own tea garden on Phoenix Mountain, so the tea here is authentic Phoenix Mountain tea, which is very reassuring to drink. 🪭Address: No. 10, Zaifuxiang, Yian Road, Xiangqiao District, Chaozhou City 🎫Ticket: It used to be free, now it's 10 yuan per person 🕰️Opening Hours: 9:00-11:30/14:00-17:00 🍵Tea Tasting: Tea tasting is free, you can also order tea separately, and if you have time, you can sit down and enjoy a pot.
