Theme: Chaoshan Gongfu Tea

 

Chinese tea culture spans thousands of years, and Chaoshan Gongfu Tea — with its meticulous brewing and rich folk traditions — stands as a classic symbol of Chinese tea culture. In Chaoshan (Chaozhou, Shantou, Jieyang in GuangDong), tea-drinking is woven into daily life. Gongfu Tea, a national intangible cultural heritage, follows the art of small pot, small cup, high pour, low pour — slow-brewed, bittersweet, much like the philosophy of a calm life. To Chaoshan people, Gongfu Tea is not performed elegance — it is everyday warmth. A pot of tea bridges hearts and eases the rush of life, embodying the quiet grace of Eastern tea culture.

This week's English Corner invites you to meet over tea. Let's explore the charm of Gongfu Tea, practice English, and savor culture — all in the aroma of tea. Everyone is welcome to join us for this elegant cultural gathering!
