Liangmaqiao Road - Immerse yourself in the world of Chinese tea with a local enthusiast — not a tour guide, but someone who truly embodies tea culture.
During this experience, you’ll witness a graceful Chinese tea ceremony, highlighting traditional techniques that blend visual elegance with profound cultural significance.
You’ll discover various types of Chinese tea — including green, black, oolong, pu-erh, and floral blends. You’ll also have the opportunity to select your favorite tea, try conducting the ceremony yourself, and, of course, savor and enjoy it.
We’ll thoughtfully pair you with a local tea aficionado based on your interests (shared beforehand), ensuring the experience feels more like meeting a friend than joining a tour. Your host will share their personal connection to tea and explain their insights into how tea relates to Chinese philosophy, hospitality, and wellness.
Once you’ve booked, we’ll also provide you with a digital guide to local tea shops and a seasonal city guide we’ve crafted, filled with curated tips to help you enjoy Beijing in your own unique way. Your local friend can accompany you to a tea shop you’re interested in — or to one of their personal favorites recommended by us.

What truly sets this activity apart is its adaptability and customization. Rather than directing you to a single store, a digital guide to Beijing’s vibrant tea culture is provided, featuring thousands of shops in various styles — from sleek modern venues to historic courtyards, international fusion tea shops to enchanting stores with mystical themes. You select the ones that resonate with you, and assistance is provided to explore them — akin to a friend sharing their city, rather than a tour guide adhering to a set path or specific tea shop.
Even after the tea ceremony concludes, the experience can continue. If a bond is formed with local friends, feel free to extend the afternoon together — wander through a nearby hutong, visit a teahouse, or simply enjoy more conversation over another cup.
This is more than just a tea session — it’s an invitation to forge local friendships and engage in cultural exchange, made memorable by the people encountered.
