    This Tea House was built in 1982 in connection with “White Cloud Tea”, famous tea of Huqiu. Poets in old time used to like to describe tea in their poems as Du Fu?Lu Yanrang in the Tang Dynasty (618?907) and Yu Yue in the Qing Dynasty (1616?1911). Du Fu says?pursuing not the flowing water but the clouds; Lu Yanrang says?the sweet tea with the spring water is good?and Yu Yue was known for his article My Elegant Room with Tea Fragrance. The White Cloud Tea began popular since Song Dynasty (960?1279)?and came to its golden age in the Ming Dynasty (1368?1644). The historic book Chronicle of Suzhou records as?the tea planted in Jin Li area of Huqiu is so outstanding. Ater infused, it is white as jade?sweet as orchid?yet it is easy to finish drinking. Its name started from Song Dynasty?and the poet Su Shi ranked it the best in his book.
