By drawing pictures on a cup of tea, chabaixi, an ancient Chinese tea art, has become popular recently. Chang Zhifeng, an inheritor（传承人） of chabaixi, noticed from a TV show that many people showed great interest in this art.
Chabaixi can create different pictures such as bum boos and mountains. There are many steps, from grinding（磨碎） tea, pouring boil cd water, stirring（搅拌） the mixture, to finally drawing the pictures. After seven times of pouring water and stirring, there will be enough dark foam（泡沫）. Then we can draw pictures on it with clear water and a stick. The process of drawing, or dlancha, must be finished in 20 minutes before the foam disappears.
"Chabaixi is one of the many forms of tea art in China. It becomes popular not only because it is a special Chinese tradition, but also because it gives us a window to see people's lifestyle in the Song Dynasty." Zhang said.
Years ago, this special art was close to disappearing completely. Zhang Zhifeng started researching the origins（起源） of chabaixi in the 1980 s and brought the art back in 2009 after scars of sting and practicing. Chang thought it was really meaningful. In 2017, this art was listed as part of China's Intangible Cultural Heritage （非物质文化遗产）.
"This art is key to the tea culture of the Song Dynasty, and it would be a shame to let it disappear. It is our duty to pass it on," Zhang said.

Robin 15, France | Aug.2 11:35 a. m. You can ask to go with an adult. Another idea is to ask your friends to bring the things they buy at the mall to your place. And then you can share them together. |
Claire 13, England | Aug. 2 2:38 p. m. My parents don't let me go to many places on my own, either. They just don't want us to be in danger. Maybe you can get yourself dropped off and picked up. Or ask your parents to stay in the mall too. |
Olivia 16, China | Aug.3 9:03 a. m. They might have a good reason for not letting you go alone. Explain why you want to go. If they say no, ask them to take you to the mall and watch from a distance(远处). |
