The Teddy Bear Afternoon Tea is a Christmas tradition at the Ritz-Carlton Beijing, Financial Street. This year, the hotel partners with BeePanda, an ecological honey enterprise to introduce an environmentally friendly concept to this Christmas season.
BeePanda Honey is produced by Chinese bees, a native bee species smaller in size and more active in low temperatures that spreads pollens of native flowers in forests. Chinese bees are critical to maintaining a balanced environment for local plants in the forest. Call 010-6601-6666 to learn more.
