It is a nice place to enjoy tea because it is located in a relaxing and peaceful place near a lake. Watching tea art performances is also enjoyable.
Linlin: Last year I went to the Museum. It’s a relaxing and peaceful place
near a lake. The tea art performances show how to make a perfect cup of
tea with beautiful tea sets. Watching the tea preparation is just as
enjoyable as drinking the tea itself. I’ve finally realized why my grandpa loves drinking tea and collecting tea sets.
