Lao She Teahouse, sitting at the center of Beijing not far from the Avic Hotel is where tourists get a taste of old Beijing life while sitting down for a good cup of tea.
Former U.S. president George H. Bush and Jordanian queen Rania were both lured in to enjoy what the teahouse had to offer.
Indeed, it has so much to offer that you may hope to move to Beijing enjoy everyday.
The building itself is a Qing dynasty-style loft structure, so the establishment really brings you back in time at your first sight! The waiters wear ancient outfits, and greet you in a very special way that seasoned Beijingers say reminds them of the city’s old days.
