What is the business of the teahouse?

Teahouses are shops where people make and taste tea.

Also known as teahouse and tea shop. With the spread of tea culture, different types of teahouses have been developed all over the world.

First, traditional tea houses.

1, China Teahouse

Teahouses have a long history in China. The earliest teahouse appeared in the Kaiyuan period of the Tang Dynasty (765,438+03-7465,438+0), and it was called Mingpu. Hangzhou Teahouse was called Teahouse in Song Dynasty. The title of "teahouse" began to appear in the Ming Dynasty. Teahouses developed into public entertainment places in Qing Dynasty. Shi Jing Teahouses include Qing Teahouses, Big Teahouses, Book Teahouses, Wine Teahouses and Garden Teahouses. Guangdong Teahouses in Guangzhou and Hong Kong not only taste tea, but also all kinds of snacks, which are often used as dinner.

2. Japanese tea house

Traditional shops selling tea in Japan are called teahouses. Since the Muromachi era, there have been tea sellers at the entrance of Dongsi Temple, attracting many believers to visit the birthdays of every god. This is the prototype of the teahouse.

3. North Korea Tea House

Teahouses on the Korean peninsula sell not only tea brewed from tea leaves, but also traditional Korean tea.

Second, the new teahouse.

At present, there are new teahouses all over the world. In addition to local traditional tea, there are foreign tea drinks and some new teas or other drinks. For example, Japanese tea shops, tea houses on the Korean Peninsula, foam black tea shops in Taiwan Province Province, and tea restaurants in Hong Kong.

Historical background

There are also many literati in the teahouse. The big signboard with gold on the black background in Taotaoju lobby is said to have been written by Kang Youwei. In the past, Tao Taoju used to be an unlisted club for Cantonese opera artists, and it was an activity place for them to bury their classes. In 1950s, there were several typical figures in Chen Canyun's Scent of Four Seasons. They found models in a teahouse.

We don't know whether the characters in Lu Xun's novels were picked up in the teahouse in Guangzhou, but we can see from his notes that during his stay in Guangzhou in 1927, he had been to the Taiping Pavilion in Shanquan, Luyuan, Miaoqixiang, Bieyouchun, Beiyuan, Nanyuan, Yijing Restaurant, National Restaurant, Taotaoju and Gongbeilou, Jinhua Zhai, Fulaiju and Daguan Hotel.

Wei Junyi, a writer, has been to three or four teahouses in Guangzhou. She is very familiar with Cantonese people going to teahouses. She praised the teahouse as "like a social occasion for the masses, and the atmosphere is really lovely", which is really pleasant. It is said that the stairs of the teahouse are crowded up and down, and it is a kind of "friendship between gentlemen" to greet the waiter automatically after eating, "not only interesting but also fashionable", which is "the real old Cantonese style." This is not empty talk and praise, but experience.
