I attended the tea tasting and ceremony and it was incredible. Hands down my favorite tea activity I've ever done (as a collector and drinker of tea). I learned so much about Chinese tea and tasted three different teas. Eric was the best teache...
r! So knowledgeable and funny at the same time, which made for an experience that was equal part entertaining and enlightening. Admission to walk around the gardens is included in the tea ceremony (I accidentally bought it twice) so keep that in mind! The gardens were gorgeous and just capped off an already excellent event.

It's maybe a bit on the pricier side from a value proposition, but we did really enjoy our visit. The tour itself is highly worth attending, as I probably felt it would not have been worth the price of admission without it. Overall, the grounds...
are well kept and the craftsmanship is impressive. I wouldn't say it's am overly peaceful place (no fault of its own) because of the surrounding city environment and noises.
