... Nice view of the entrance of the Old Tea Forests... this site covers an ancient tea production area deeply connected to the Blang and Dai ethnic groups, who have cultivated the tea forests for over a thousand years using traditional, sustainable methods... the forests are a "nature museum of tea" with some trees being hundreds of years old and they are allowed to grow to their natural size, rather than being pruned to a uniform height, which is the case in most tea production... they are cultivated in a way that preserves biodiversity, with tea trees growing in harmony with the natural forest... visitors can hike through the ancient forests, visit traditional villages and learn about tea production from locals, participate in tea ceremonies and enjoy panoramic views... today, tea is a popular product that generates substantial income for local people... Thanks Lu!
