Enjoy a Tang Dynasty emperor’s hot spring bath and the winter feast at Beijing’s Ziyunxuan Tea House

In Beijing’s winter, when temperatures drop to minus 20 degrees amid snowy skies, there’s no greater comfort than soaking in a hot spring bath and enjoying a warm cup of ginger tea as snow falls. Located in the suburban outskirts of Beijing, Ziyunxuan Tea House is known as China’s most avant-garde and retro hot spring “tea bath experience and tea dwelling,” offering a series of winter delicacies and wellness treatments from northern China.

Inspired by the hot spring baths of Tang Dynasty emperors, the “Tea Bath Experience and Tea Dwelling” is like an oasis in the bustling city. It now offers a ginger tea hot spring bath, where guests can soak in indoor tea spoon bathtubs or rooftop tubs, quietly admiring the beautiful winter snowscapes of the north and shaking off the chill of the harsh winter. Ziyunxuan Tea House has created a new star-level experience using ginger. After the bath, guests can enjoy a specially served ginger tea, fully relaxing their body and mind.

Beyond the emperor-style hot spring bath, guests can sleep on traditional canopy “dragon beds” with four posts or spend the night in a sky loft bedroom. A range of refined experiences can be chosen based on preference, such as tea ceremonies, tea baths, unique weddings, cultural workshops, traditional music, contemporary Chinese art, and themed banquets. The overnight accommodation service includes a dedicated butler. For 1–2 people, the cost is 6,000 RMB, and up to 8 guests can stay overnight. The package does not include drinks. It costs 10,000 RMB, which includes access to the Maxi bar, rooftop barbecue, breakfast, as well as unlimited use of the tea bath, steam room, and open-air rooftop Jacuzzi.

Founded in 1997, Ziyunxuan is one of Beijing’s most elegant landmarks. Opened in 2006, Ziyunxuan Tea House has further promoted the concept of tea cuisine. The tea cuisine uses fresh, natural ingredients and is meticulously prepared with time-honored cooking techniques from various regions across China to create a star-level “new-style Chinese tea cuisine.” For detailed accommodation and pricing information, please visit the Ziyunxuan website.
