Chinese tea meets South African wine on UN Chinese Language Day


CAPE TOWN, April 19 (Xinhua) -- An educational partnership between China and South Africa on Tuesday brought Chinese tea culture to Cape Town's Groot Constantia, the oldest South African wine farm, to promote exchanges of cultures and celebrate UN Chinese Language Day.

Making tea and wine share similarities that they both need dedication, hard work and craftmanship, therefore the Confucius Institute for Chinese Medicine at University of Western Cape holds a tea event at a winery to boost exchanges of the two cultures, said the institute's director Zeng Liren, while making Chinese green tea for visitors.
