Perched on a gentle hillside overlooking the Yangtze River in Chongqing, Ye Wang Tea Stall is more than a simple tea house—it’s a living postcard of the city’s layered skyline and ever-changing light. From the soft ripples of the river by day to the golden hues of sunset and then to the glittering nightscape of the metropolis, this spot turns the whole city into your backdrop, one sip at a time.

Gather around a traditional brazier for “guo lu” style tea brewing, where tea is slowly warmed over charcoal, releasing deeper, richer aromas than a standard pour. Whether you choose a light green tea, a smooth oolong, or a warm aged Pu-erh, paired with a small platter of snacks and fruit, the act of sharing tea becomes a quiet conversation between you and the city.

If you prefer something more lively, the riverside BBQ duo set offers carefully selected premium meats grilled fresh at your table, complemented by a pot of carefully prepared gong fu tea—a perfect balance of smoky meat and refined tea that lets you taste both the city’s boldness and its grace.

For a calmer experience, the gong fu tea duo set invites you to slow down. A set of curated teas, gentle pours, and light snacks lets you watch the river traffic drift by and the skyline gradually light up as dusk turns into night.

Wherever you sit, the setting is naturally photogenic: the hillside terrace, glowing lanterns, the tea brazier, the sizzling grill, and the endless city lights stretching across the water and sky. With the portrait and cityscape photography service, a local photographer helps you blend yourself into this scene, turning your visit into a series of polished, Instagram-ready images that capture both your presence and the city’s glow.
