Into Zen! Late Night Openings at the museum

With the help of the experts of the Musée de Mariemont [http://www.musee-mariemont.be/], you can become a real Chinese tea connoisseur. Learn to recognize the colours and shapes of the tea-leaves and discover their scents. Enjoy the flavors of different types of tea and learn to improve your tea drinking experience. Perhaps you feel it is time you tried a yoga session? In the sumptuous setting of the magnificent museum building yoga teacher Nathalie [http://www.puras-vidas.com/] will guide you into different poses such as the downward facing dog pose, the cobra or the warrior pose. Two of the sessions offered are totally kids friendly! You can also follow the ‘gastronomic’ guided tour on which our guides will tell you everything about food once used as currency. Did you know for instance that a rabbit was worth 10 cocoa beans in the cultures of the Mayans and Aztecs? And…rumour goes that Saint Nicholas himself will make his appearance at the museum on Thursday 5 December! Chinese tea tastings: FR 17.30 // NL 18.30 // FR and NL 20.00 ‘Gastronomic’ tour: FR 18.00 // NL 17.30 // EN 20.00 Yoga (FR and NL) : 19.00 // 20.45 Kids yoga (FR and NL): (3-5 years old with parents) 17.00 // (5-10 years old without parents) 18.00 Practical information 10 October and 5 December, from 17.00 to 22.00.
