My Chinese friend shows me the real Chengdu!
In this video, our local Chengdu friend, Troy takes us to an incredible tea house which is over 100-years-old. We were lucky enough to speak to the owner about the history and culture of the teahouse.
Troy runs an Instagram account all about Chengdu so if you are heading there then make sure to check it out! / chengdumemo

I like that. Really I like things of the old. I miss a lot of the old tea shops and old nostalgic vibes you don't get at all from the modern coffee shops.

Wow that place is amazing. You're right, a lot of places in China seem to be getting rid of the old and building shiny/flash/new - but that tea house is special because of this old style

Ah, it’s Guanyin temple teahouse in Pengzhen, I haven’t been there even I am a Chengdu local. Not just this teahouse, a lot places like schools and hospitals in Sichuan and Chongqing used to be temples, it’s amazing sometimes you could feel the traces of history from these places.
"... businesses and consumers are always looking for the next trend. But sometimes the best way to stand out from the crowd is to stick to your principles.Trends come and go but this place is timeless." I love these types of places.
Unique travel destination in Chengdu.

Amazing thanks for the tip I will check them out. I would definitely recommend Autumn or Spring in China. Try to avoid Summer as it gets super hot and Winter can be really cold depending on where you go. But Spring and Autumn are perfect but try to avoid the national holidays as they can be a bit busy! @@sabrinastraveladventures4263

I like your videos about Chengdu so much! But this time there were to much pictures of communist leaders and also the fact that this teahouse was once a temple mad me sad. But the video was very interesting and I enjoyed it.

Thanks a lot I'm pleased you enjoy them. Unfortunately we can't control what was on the walls or what it used to be but I'm happy to see the building still thriving even though the function has changed.
Nice ! What’s the name of this place ?
