You can take a girl out of England but not away from her tea!

If man has no tea in him, he is incapable of understanding truth and beauty. ~Japanese Proverb
 

 Dushanbe in Tajikstan is the twin town to Boulder, CO and as a result they donated this wonderful tea-room to them! http://www.boulderteahouse.com/ 


'The ceiling of the Teahouse was carved and painted with intricate patterns traditional of Persian Art. The teahouse ceiling was originally built, carved and painted in Tajikistan. Absolutely no power tools were used in the original construction. The work was crafted by hand exactly as it was centuries ago.
Inside the Teahouse, there are 12 intricately carved cedar columns. These, were sent from Tajikistan with the original gift. No two columns are alike.'
