I spent the whole afternoon sitting in a teahouse in Chengdu, but for some reason I felt an urge to cry.

I spent half the day at a teahouse today. The sunshine was especially lovely. Sitting under the trees, everyone was leisurely sipping tea from covered bowls, basking in the sun, cracking sunflower seeds, getting their ears cleaned, and chatting with friends. You could see the relaxed pace of life in Chengdu here. 😄 Being there, it felt like my life slowed down too. This was a feeling I hadn't experienced in a long time – a sense of "slow living" and "relaxation." Suddenly, I felt an urge to cry. Firstly, I felt this beautiful life was too far away from me 💔 Secondly, I felt I'd been constantly drained by internal conflict and anxiety these past few years, putting too much pressure on myself. But now I realize that happiness is actually found in small moments, and simple joys are easy to find. Thinking about myself these past years, tears almost welled up. But the world is inherently beautiful; when will I be able to truly belong there? 😄 When drinking tea in Chengdu, don't just think of Heming Teahouse! This is where the locals truly love it! The popular Heming Teahouse in People's Park is incredibly crowded and the experience isn't great. It's full of tourists, and locals prefer other places. 😄 So, Chen Jin Teahouse is a perfect alternative. It's less crowded, but still has a lively, down-to-earth atmosphere. 🔍Navigation: Chen Jin Teahouse 📍Address: Tiexiang Temple Water Street 🚘Transportation: Take Metro Line 5 to Jinchenghu Station 😄 Ordering Process: Find a seat, scan the QR code on the table to order, and wait a while for someone to bring your tea. 😄 Chen Jin Teahouse is probably the most photogenic teahouse. There are no parasols, but there's a stage, a big tree, and wooden tables and rattan chairs. The inscription in front of the stage, "Life is long, why rush?" makes it a great spot for photos. 📸 😄
