与中医相关的城市
Beijing (北京)
Founded in 1669, Tongrentang is China's most famous TCM pharmacy. You can visit the flagship store in Beijing, watch herbalists prepare prescriptions, and even get a consultation.
Beijing has been China's TCM capital for centuries, with Tongrentang as its crown jewel.
Hangzhou (杭州)
Founded in 1874, this Hangzhou TCM pharmacy is both a working clinic and a museum. Longjing green tea — grown just outside town — is valued in TCM for its cooling, antioxidant properties.
Hangzhou's tea culture and TCM heritage are inseparable — every cup of Longjing is a dose of medicine.
Xi'an (西安)
Xi'an's traditional medicine street near the Drum Tower has been home to herbalists for centuries. The Liu family — known as the 'Medicine Kings' — have been practicing TCM here since the Ming Dynasty.
Xi'an's position on the Silk Road made it a crossroads for medicinal herbs and knowledge from Central Asia.
Chengdu (成都)
Chengdu's Hehuachi Herbal Medicine Market is a sensory overload — hundreds of stalls selling dried roots, fungi, deer antler, and exotic ingredients you've never heard of. The 'damp-heat' Sichuan climate makes TCM dietary therapy part of daily life.
Chengdu is the TCM capital of southwestern China, with a herb market that draws buyers from across Asia.
Chongqing (重庆)
Chongqing hotpot's beef tallow broth was originally devised as a warming, yang-boosting meal for the humid river climate — a perfect example of TCM's 'food as medicine' philosophy.
Chongqing's famous hotpot is rooted in centuries of TCM dietary practice.
