Check Out Westsider Books And Floating Mountain In New York

Everyone knows that New York City has a veritable bounty of things to do and places to see. In fact, the only problem may be whittling down the options to decide what you want to do! Well, look no further for a wonderful day out – tea and books. What could be better? Start the day off right by stopping by Floating Mountain tea shop for an authentic Chinese tea experience. Then take some time to wander through the shelves at Westsider Books.

Floating Mountain is located on West 72nd Street. But if you want to spot it from the street, you will have to look skyward! It is on the second floor.

You can pick from a variety of loose-leaf tea flavors. We can’t decide which to try first – the shop has all types of green, red, and white tea, among others.

The shop offers a lovely Tea Ceremony performed every Thursday morning. The ceremony is an important ritual in Chinese culture, and it offers the perfect mid-morning break from hectic daily life. Check it out!

The vibe in the shop is chill and calm. It’s perfect for studying, working, or leisurely chats with friends.

Once you’ve had your fill of tea, stop by Westsider Books for some literary entertainment, just a short jaunt away. It’s a cute, locally-owned shop that specializes in rare, old, or out-of-print books.

If you’re looking for a read that’s a bit out of the ordinary, this is your place. The shelves are stacked two books deep, so you can spend hours exploring to your heart’s content.

Whether you are looking for your next laid-back beach read or a more obscure tome, this little shop has something to suit the tastes of bibliophiles everywhere.

Don’t forget to say hello to this adorable furry friend while you are there!
