Qingyuan Mountain Tea House: Take a rejuvenating trip!

|Take a rejuvenating trip! 🏘️Room Type/Layout: The overall decoration of the tea house integrates the styles of Southern Fujian, tea, and Zen. It has a viewing tatami mat, a duplex viewing courtyard, a mountain-viewing and moon-appreciating room, a forest oxygen bar room, etc. More than ten uniquely decorated viewing rooms 🧹Soundproofing/Hygiene: Walk straight into the tea house to find the rooms. There are courtyard or stacked courtyard room types, surrounded by vegetation, as if you are in a jungle. The rooms are also clean and tidy, with comfortable beds and complete facilities, suitable for small gatherings and team stays. 🏕️Nearby Attractions: *🏯 Thousand-Year-Old Temple, Legend of Southern Shaolin** ▪️ **Originating in the Tang Dynasty**: Quanzhou Shaolin Temple was built in the Tang Dynasty by Master Zhikong, one of the thirteen stick-wielding monks of Songshan Shaolin. It is the birthplace of Southern Shaolin martial arts and has a history of thousands of years. ▪️ **Three Revivals and Three Destructions**: It flourished three times during the Tang, Song, and Ming dynasties, and was destroyed several times in the flames of war. It was burned down during the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty for opposing the Qing and restoring the Ming. It was rebuilt in 1992 and has regained its glory. ▪️ **Martial Arts Holy Land**: "Five Ancestor Fist," the representative of Southern Fist, was developed here. On weekends, you can watch martial monks perform the nine-section whip and iron head skills, and feel the shock of "fist wind shaking the leaves." 💰️Average cost: This season is relatively off-season, and the room rate is about 600–800+ depending on the room type (can be booked on Trip.com). If you don’t stay overnight and just come for tea, it is calculated per person, 58/person. The restaurant in the homestay is quite good and the price is moderate. 💗Other tips: 📍Location: Quanzhou Shaolin Temple (Southern Shaolin)** **⏰Recommended time: Morning or dusk, when the Zen atmosphere is strongest** 1. **Zen Tea as One**: Find a stone table or the Qingliang Pavilion behind the performance hall in the temple, bring your own tea set to make tea, or go to the tea room next to the monks’ quarters to experience Zen tea (reservation required in advance). 2. **Surrounding Roaming**: After going down the mountain, walk 800m to visit: Quanzhou Intangible Cultural Heritage Museum, and the opposite: Quanzhou Maritime Museum. 3. **Cultural Immersion**: Combine the hairpin flower experience (Xunpu Village) and a stroll on Luoyang Bridge to understand "half city of fireworks, half city of immortals" in one day.
