More than a dozen wine vats are lined up on the ground, with a variety of antiques and collector's items displayed on the shelves. What is unique about their menu is that the tea menu is carved on a wooden board, while other drinks and dishes are carved into two pieces of leather. Many wooden statues of Gods are displayed along the hallway, and an assortment of teapots, jewelry boxes, crafts and other antique collections are shown on the wooden shelves. Many red lanterns are strung up in the teahouse, and an antique bed and wardrobe with delicate carvings can be found on the second floor.The owner of this teahouse used to be in the clothing industry. He enjoys painting and has a certain appreciation for crafts and pieces of art. He also has a passion for collecting antiques and crafts.
