A good teahouse has few words, is easy to understand and catchy, is unique, and is not easily confused with others. To sum up, there are the following categories. There are many forests, in order to be rewarded with the same taste, elegance and customs.
First, it is related to natural landscapes and vegetation.
The names of these teahouses mostly reflect the concept of harmony between man and nature, Taoism and nature, especially the words "mountain, water, dew, rain" and "lotus and orchid". Focusing on the artistic conception of tea tasting can be described as "Kung Fu is beyond tea".
For example, the names related to mountain and water scenery include: Qian Shan Qingxue, Lanning, Bishui Danshan, Longshanshui, Shuiyuexuan, Shuixie Pavilion, Chongzheng Shuiliantian, Yilantang, Hanruoju, Jiuquxi, Zhuxi, Qiaoying and Ziyunxuan, etc.
The names of these teahouses reflect the unique oriental natural aesthetics of China traditional culture. Drinking tea in such teahouses will definitely give people a vivid beauty like China landscape paintings.
those with the word "Lu" are Biluxuan, Luyuxuan and Ganlinxuan. Taoism believes that the return to nature and the survival of the universe depend on the integration of yin and yang, and dew is the elite of heaven and earth at night and after integration. Some people even think that dew is fresh and mysterious nectar, and drinking more can make people and animals live forever. Therefore, tea must be picked in the early morning when the air on the mountain is fresh and the fragrance of dew remains on the leaves, and the tea picked is the top grade. It can be seen that tea is precious.
those with the word "rain" are: Lai Jin Yu Xuan, Nong Yu Xuan and Rain Pavilion. Rain alone suits tea. In Tea Sparse, which was written by the ancients for many times, there is a saying: "It's light and overcast, and it's slightly rainy, and it's a small bridge painting", which is one of the beautiful scenery of "suitable tea". Han Shaohua, a modern man, wrote in Tea Tasting in Longjing Temple: "The light rain after the snow, the light cold in the rain, the warm smoke and the cool green shrouded in the light cold rain, and the quiet and empty space created by the mutual dissolution of the charming language in front of the eaves and the cooking sound under the window ... What's more, all this is actually exclusive to me!" It can be seen that the taste of tea in this rain is different from usual, and there is a cool charm. Coincidentally, George Gissing, an Englishman, has a similar description in "Essays on the Cottage": it's cold and rainy in the afternoon (winter, the author's note), walking home, putting on slippers, putting on an old coat, curling up in a soft chair in the study and having afternoon tea. Among them, the casual word "old coat" gives people such a warm and cordial feeling and is so harmonious with the approachability of tea. In this context, how can we not make people's mood tend to be peaceful? It can be seen that tasting tea in the rain does have a taste that is not easy to observe at ordinary times! Similar names include: Dew Rain Pavilion, Listening Rain Pavilion, Boiling Rain Pavilion and Heart Rain House, etc.
Related to vegetation are: vegetation man, vegetation room, herb garden and thatched cottage. The word "vegetation man" comes from the riddle "man in vegetation", and the answer is a word "tea". These three words express the concept of harmony between man and nature in tea ceremony. Tea is a vital spirit grass, no wonder some people regard the tea in their hands as "a cup of spring grass"! In Tea Sparse written by Xu Sishu, there are: "The lotus pavilion is used to escape the summer, and the small courtyard burns incense", and the noble quality of lotus flowers "out of the mud but not stained" is also appreciated by tea people, and they often encourage themselves by it. Therefore, there are also many names with the word "lotus" or related names, such as Bihexuan, Hehweitang, Yihe and Lianhua. In Qu Yuan's Lisao, there are a lot of metaphors to describe gentlemen with herbs, so teahouses named after herbs like Zhilanxuan, Piaohuixuan and Yulan have already become a gentleman's style. In addition, there are some plant-related names such as Guhuaixuan, Lanxiangmei, Wisteria Furnace, Songzhuxin and Baisixin.
most of the above names are subtle, and sometimes even people who don't know what to do don't think that this is a teahouse!
Second, it has something to do with tea, tea-boiling water and pots.
This kind of names are especially common, such as "Ming, Quan, Hu", which focuses on the various elements of soaking and drinking. Of course, the kung fu lies in tea and water.
There are many people with the word "Ming", such as Mingren, Mingdu, Mingke, Mingli, Mingxi, Mingyangju, Mingzhiwei, Huimingxuan, Jumingxuan, Xiangmingxuan, Simingzhai and Sijimingyuan. Jiamushe, Lvcaotang, Lvhuachun and Lvyegufang are all related to tea itself.
"water is the mother of tea" and "water-based tea". Teahouses are different from tea houses, that is, there can't be only tea without water, so water is equally (even more) important. What kind of bubble and tea, such as "Tiger Running Spring, Longjing Tea", "Tea on Mengding Mountain, Middle Water in Yangtze River" and "Tea in Bamboo with Clear Springs on Stone", all reflect the importance of water to tea. Therefore, it is not surprising that teahouses are named after water, such as Linqingquan, Feilaiquan, Quanshizhai, Qingshui, Xizi and Mingshui.
those with the word "pot" are Tinghuxuan and Yuhuxuan.
In a word, the name of this kind of teahouse is more direct and thorough than the first one, and it is not so "holding the lute and covering your face", but "what are you shouting about?"!
Third, it has something to do with the thought of being born of Taoism and Buddhism.
The names of these teahouses are mostly medieval, reflecting the hermit psychology of the orientals who build a hut in the depths of the mountains and rivers and live in seclusion. Such names are especially common with the words "Qing, Jing and Ya".
China literati have always valued the word "Qing" and "tea can clear the heart". Good tea is neither bitter nor sweet nor fragrant, but it is all on the word "Qing". Master Huineng, the sixth ancestor of Zen Buddhism, has the word "empty and indifferent". What is "empty and indifferent"? Generally, people who are indifferent in manners, indifferent in character, pale in color, dull in sound and light in taste can all be called "Qing", that is, Laozi's "being simple and simple" and Buddha's "being quiet", so "Qing, quiet and elegant" are actually a trinity. Therefore, the names of teahouses such as Qing Xin Ju, Qing Si Xuan, Qingfeng, Jing Ya Zhai, Jing Xin Xuan, Ya Xian, Li Jas Pouch Lee, Feng Ya Song, Qi Xian Yuan, Dao Yi, Dong Li, this life and the Hermit Building reflect the Taoist's "one private thing, one spotless, one false thing" and the ethereal realm of doing something when drinking tea. While drinking tea in teahouses such as Minghui, Zen Forest, Zen Taste Xuan, Jianzhuwu, Yuansu, Yuanyuan Garden, Puxin and Dajian, it is inevitable that there will be thoughts of dust, and it is easier for tea people to observe the mystery of tea meditation blindly.
Fourth, it has something to do with Confucianism's idea of joining the WTO.
Tea people are not completely carefree and forget the world of mortals. I am afraid that joining the WTO with the idea of opening up with the fate can better reflect the wisdom of tea people. It is manifested in the name of the teahouse, especially the word "he". Different from Taoism's detachment and laissez-faire, these names mostly reflect the enterprising thought of Confucianism's active entry into the WTO.
For example, the "bit by bit" teahouse, bit by bit not only has the meaning of "Han Xin points soldiers" in the Kung Fu tea ceremony (no more or less tea), but also has the continuous accumulation in the journey of life and the struggle process from quantitative change to qualitative change. It implies that tea people "can't travel thousands of miles without accumulating steps", so they should take every step in a down-to-earth manner in order to finally achieve something and gain something. In addition, there are similar: clear ploughing and rain reading, winning the blue and competing for the deer. Drinking tea in such a teahouse is bound to give people incentives in the dull, and such internal incentives are often more lasting and effective.
Confucius has "harmony but difference", and "harmony" is the first of the "four beauties" (harmony, respect, purity and silence) in tea ceremony. Invite two or three confidants to have tea and talk about the past and the present, and you will have the artistic conception of not letting the so-called "cut the candle at the west window, evening rain" and "chat in bed at night". "Only when you are in tune with each other, speak eloquently, and get rid of the skeleton, can you call the children's bonfire and draw water to order soup" (Xu Shushu's Tea Shushu), but if you "have a good knowledge and superb poetry, you can't help yourself" (Broken Mountain Man's Night Sailing Boat) Therefore, if you can get a confidant and talk about tea in the "confidant" teahouse, life is enough! Other names that show that tea people are kind to their confidants and help the world at the same time are: Jixian Hall, Liuxian Hall, Respect for Friends, Yihe Tea Language, Guanghe, Taihe, Jingxuan and Boji.
Fifth, it is related to wealth and good fortune.
The names of these teahouses often have the words "Fu, Xiang, Xin", which reflect people's yearning for a happy and prosperous material life, and many of them have a beautiful meaning of good luck. Such as Five Blessingg, Bofu, Runfuxuan, Mingfuyuan, Huilanfu and Yunbaoxiang. A gentleman makes money in a right way. Drinking tea and talking business in teahouses like Sheng Xinxian, Xin Maosheng, Huiwen Qingxin, Chengfu Shuiyixuan and Jinshui Noble Family is convenient for making money. Teahouse owners, buyers and sellers win and benefit each other. Isn't everyone happy?
Sixth, it is related to the place names of Beijing.
as the name implies, this class is often related to the name of the location. For example, Shuangxiu Hanfang is a teahouse located in Shuangxiu Park in the middle of North Third Ring Road. Huangchenggen Teahouse is located in East Huangchenggen North Street; Zizhuyuan and Ziyun Bamboo Garden are both near Zizhuyuan Park. However, the Tea House of Jimenyan Tree is the word "Jimenyan Tree" directly selected as one of the "Eight Scenes of Yanjing". In addition, there are Beiping Tea House and Yanzhao Tea House. In addition, Meijiang, Wuyishan Zhuang and Xizi Lake are not originally located in Beijing, but the teahouses named by them are all located in Beijing.
Seven, from allusions.
Most of these names come from famous sayings of famous artists, so they have a good artistic conception. For example, "Dongli" is taken from Tao Yuanming's "Picking chrysanthemums under Dongli, leisurely seeing Nanshan". "Coming to the Rain Pavilion" comes from the preface of a poem by Du Fu, which reads: "In autumn, Du Zi was ill and traveled to Chang 'an. Rainy raw fish, moss and collapse Always a guest of chariots and horses, the old rain comes, but the rain doesn't come today. " Today, the name of this teahouse means that old and new friends gather together, just like an old song that says, "Let's meet again in twenty years." The "Canglang Pavilion" comes from Qu Yuan's "Canglang's water is clear and clear, which can hold my tassel". Another example is the "three pools mirroring the moon" Teahouse. three pools mirroring the moon was originally the place where Lu Xun studied as a private school when he was young. As a teahouse, the "three flavors" also came from the allusion: "Reading classics tastes like rice beams, reading history tastes like dishes, and reading hundred schools of thought tastes like acyl sugar".
Eight, related to action.
The names of the above teahouses are nouns, which should be the case. However, some people have found another way to name teahouses with verbs, which gives people a refreshing feeling and often makes people see a vivid scene.
such as "Yun Qi" teahouse. Moire patterns are widely used in traditional arts and crafts in China, and the Olympic torch is also named after "Xiangyun". In "Watching the flowers bloom and fall in front of the court, looking up at the clouds rolling in the sky", clouds give people a sense of unrestrained freedom and idleness, so there is a saying of "traveling in clouds". There is a poem entitled "Tea Song with a cloud-making giant" in Jing Guo Ji, a collection of Japanese Han poetry, in which: "If you drink nothing, you should know that there is a fairy atmosphere", so it can be seen that drinking tea can make people fly high and travel around the world. There is a poem in Man Ting Fang in Huanggu: "There are many white clouds in the dragon-baked Dongfeng fish-eye soup", and the "cloud" here refers to the lingering in the tea soup. In short, whether as a sleeping "cloud" or a "cloud" of tea and cigarettes, at the moment of rising, it will help people enter the realm of carefree longing and pure mind. It can be said that people are in the clouds and clouds are in tea, so what a "Yun Qi"!
"Tea in Meiyuan" is also a good name. If this teahouse opens a branch, can it be called "Xun Mei in the Snow"? Let people know at a glance that they are sister stores.
In addition, such names include: sitting and watching Yun Qi, reading in the rain, using wood as a pillow, cooking the rain pavilion, listening to the rain pavilion, listening to the pot pavilion, laughing and having a rest, and so on.
Nine, from homophonic.
Friends come to pay homage to Ben from "Penglai Wonderland". The "four beauties" of tea ceremony are "harmony, quietness, clearness and silence", and there is "it is not pleasant for friends to come from afar", which is harmony; Give a cup of tea after meeting, which is respect. Therefore, the literal meaning of "respect before friends" contains the gentleman's virtue of harmony and respect. In Lu Tong's Seven Bowls of Tea Poems, there are "seven bowls can't be eaten, only two axillary breezes are blowing", and there are "two axillary breezes are blowing, and I want to go to Penglai" (Bai Yuchan's "Singing Tea with Water"). It can be seen that drinking tea sometimes has the illusion of straying into fairyland and not knowing what night it is. Therefore, friends come to worship first to skillfully connect the metaphysical "harmony and respect" in the tea ceremony with the metaphysical floating into the fairyland, which can be described as killing three birds with one stone.
The word "tea is the real hometown" is a pun, which has the meaning of "tea is really fragrant" and "this is the real destination of tea". And "happiness in the East China Sea" certainly includes the blessing of "happiness as the East China Sea"; Another example is "Bamboo Creek", which is both poetic and picturesque, and contains the exhortation that life should be content, grateful and cherish the present.
In addition to the above, there are many names that can't be classified, which are also elegant and unique. For example: chamate, Yi Bingding, Wen Ruxin Ju and Yi Bi, and so on. Because some teahouses no longer exist for various reasons, they are now in name only. Because this article is just a reflection on the name of the product, there is no need to follow the map to find these teahouses, otherwise it is likely to come back in vain.
With all the names of teahouses mentioned, do you also have the urge to open a teahouse? If the author has the opportunity to open a teahouse, I will give it a name of "extraordinary" and call it "tasteless". It may seem absurd, but there is a source: Lu Ciyun, a Qing dynasty, said in Miscellaneous Notes on the Lake that Longjing tea "has a kind of peaceful and tasteless taste after drinking, which is between the teeth and cheeks. This tasteless taste is even tasteless!" This "tasteless taste" is not bitter, sweet, bitter or sweet, and can't be tasted without "heart", so this "tasteless" actually means to taste tea with "heart".
However, if this name is really used, I'm afraid the teahouse will be empty, if not closed! Just because there is "who knows the taste"? Therefore, this name is purely a joke, don't take it seriously!
