Traditional Vietnamese tea house

Traditional tea houses with enjoyable and peaceful atmosphere are for those who want to escape from the hustle and rush of everyday life. Usually, they have the architecture of an ancient house in the Vietnamese rural area. Traditional tea houses in Vietnam are decorated with pots of flowers, furniture made from wood (especially bamboo), and bamboo trees. There you can sit under the porch and observe the smoke from the teapot.

They serve a wide range of traditional Vietnamese teas from different regions of the country: green tea, scented tea with natural flowers (lotus, chamomile, jasmine, rose, and others). Some of Vietnamese tea houses serve specialty teas of ancient tea trees which are more than a hundred years old.

You can not only enjoy traditional tea there, but also listen to live music, participate in tea culture activities, seminars, and talks. You will have the opportunity to taste local desserts such as lotus heart tea paired with longan or jasmine tea used with green bean cake.
