Modern newspapers and periodicals, as historical witnesses, have retained a large number of precious records about teahouses for us. This paper aims to excavate these rich materials and analyze the presentation of teahouse culture in modern newspapers from the historical perspective. In view of form, the way of drinking tea in modern teahouses showed distinct regional characteristics, and there were significant differences in different regions and periods, reflecting the living habits and taste preferences of people in different regions. In terms of utensils, tea sets in teahouses were not only the embodiment of people's living habits and cultural traditions, but also a mirror of social history and culture, reflecting the social customs, economic conditions and material and cultural changes at that time. In terms of terminology, teahouse, as a specific place, had a unique way of communication. Through sorting out various teahouse terms, the unique charm and profound heritage of teahouse culture can be explored. In terms of practice, words and behaviors in the teahouse had their special significance, which was not only a way for people to share and exchange emotions, but also played a role in popularizing knowledge, moral education, public opinion supervision and emotional connection.

As the times change, Kunming tea houses have evolved throughout history. During the Ming and Qing dynasties, Kunming tea houses gradually flourished from simple tea huts, pavilions, shacks, and lodges to the center for information exchange, refreshment, leisure, and commercial transactions, and the important venues for social activities among various social classes. In modern times, Kunming tea houses have shown diversity and prosperity, with their functions continuously expanding to adapt to social changes. They not only disseminated popular culture but also became public spaces for leisure and entertainment. Particularly, the first half of the 20th century experienced a brief abnormal prosperity, during which spending some time in tea houses became an essential part of people’s daily lives. Today, Kunming tea houses embody a combination of tradition and modernity, simplicity and richness, exhibiting significant differences in spatial patterns, social functions, and development characteristics. In light of tea houses, we can not only observe the development and changes of the city, but also indirectly witness the transformations in society, economy, politics, and culture.

Yunnan is a province inhabited by a great number of ethnic minorities, and is also the main producing area of Pu’er tea in China. Apart from the integration of folk customs and cultures of various ethnic groups, hard-working people of all ethnic groups have also been engaged in tea planting, production, processing and management for a long time. They are also the direct inheritor of tea industry and tea culture. The unique Yunnan "tea songs" is the main carrier for the dissemination of Chinese tea culture. Since its debut in the form of songs, it has transcended the tea itself and reached the life itself. Having been rooted in the folk, tea songs not only enrich the unique ethnic culture in Yunnan, but also open a new chapter for the integration and development of ethnic minorities in the past, present and future.
