It was a great, fun day... - It was a great, fun day out exploring a part of Shanghai that wouldn't have been on our list.
The tea tasting was great, had a good time chatting with our guide Jun. The caligraphy part was awesome, fun and a little hard for us. I didn't even know Jun took us pictures, so grateful for that. Also grateful for the details she gave us on the temples.

A Different part of the City! - It was really fun to see this part of the city before I left the next day. I loved the tea tasting and calligraphy lesson. Thanks for a great time!

Sunday morning away from the crowds - What a great experience and how much learning within a short time. After a stroll through the water city, we stopped at the teahouse next to the temple. There the tea tasting and calligraphy course where happening. Sunny is caring, warm-hearted and a perfect connector between the cultures and languages. We shared many laughs and enjoyed our day off (business trip) in great company and tranquility. The perfect morning! We would book again.

A wonderful cultural excursion with something for everyone! - We learned a lot about China’s history and culture. Our tour guide Annie taught us a lot about Qibao, while tea experts gave us a comprehensive deep dive on tea and calligraphy. We explored an old water village and temple too. The calligrapher beautifully wrote our baby’s name in Chinese for us - we were touched!
