27th June, 2008: Tea and Tour at the Huntington
Good news, tea lovers! Due to the growing popularity of your beverage of choice, tea can increasingly be enjoyed at some of your favorite travel destinations! One fantastic example is The Huntington in San Marino, California. This facility has it all: a library, art collections plus botanical gardens. The Huntington also boasts the Rose Garden Tea Room.
Relax as you enjoy your drink in the tea room, conveniently located in the newly opened Chinese garden. Traditional English tea tidbits (such as scones) are available as well, or you can order a heartier lunch item.
You might even consider a special “tea and tour.” And, if you enjoyed viewing the Mary Cassatt paintings that the Bigelow blog featured back in February you’ll want to add a stop to the museum section of The Huntington as they have one of the artist’s tea depictions on display. Please check the destination’s web site for hours and updated news: reservations are required for the Tea Room and the tour. And those wanting a peek at the Cassatt art will want to plan ahead for summer when the museum housing this painting re-opens.
