Those craving a slower pace of life should consider Yangzhou in East China's Jiangsu province.
Yangzhou residents like to start the day off with a hot cup of morning tea, a creative combination of tea and dim sum which, as any local will tell you, is a crucial part of maintaining a healthy lifestyle.
Typically, morning tea in Yangzhou is served with yaorou, gansi, noodles, and Baozi.
Most teahouses will serve guests Luyangchun, a variety of green tea produced in Yizheng district. At Yangzhou's traditional Fuchun Teahouse, visitors are able to sample its signature Kuilongzhu tea.

Baozi, a type of steamed bun with meat or paste fillings, are another popular choice. Fuchun baozi is definitely worth a try.
