Traditional Laohuzao Teahouse In Shanghai

SHANGHAI, CHINA - JANUARY 23: (CHINA OUT) Senior citizens enjoy tea with their bird cages put aside at a Laohuzao teahouse at an alleyway January 23, 2007 in Shanghai, China. Laohuzao is a traditional store which sells hot water for residents and also serves as a teahouse and bathhouse in eastern China, dating back to when wood and coal was the only available fuel source. Laohuzao is also called tiger stove because of its bulky shape with windows on the stove chamber shaped like tiger eyes and a chimney reminiscent of a tail. Very few Laohuzao stores remain in the city as gas and electrical stoves become more common, according to local media. (Photo by China Photos/Getty Images)
