Autumn Tea Party Liuhe Zangyuan regularly holds tea parties to promote the Song Dynasty aesthetic lifestyle. October 7 is the "Cold Dew" solar term, when the heat begins to fade, the cold begins to grow, the days become shorter, the nights become longer, and the autumn dryness becomes more apparent. Traditional customs for the Cold Dew solar term include admiring autumn flowers and drinking autumn tea. The tea party is themed around "Cold Dew", allowing guests to feel the autumn breeze and welcome the late autumn season. The tea party starts at 3 pm and ends at 8 pm.
