The "Tea" stage show at OCT East in Shenzhen, China.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Overseas Chinese Town (OCT) in Shenzhen, China has opened a location in the east of the mega-city. Near the beach and deep in the mountains, the tea-themed holiday park offers visitors a number of interesting escapes from the daily grind.<\/p>\n

The daily gala show at OTC East<\/strong>, on the history of tea and tea zen, is something to behold. Grand costumes, dancing, and a giant multi-media screen make the trek across the city worthwhile.<\/p>\n
