- Ya’an - Retreat to the tranquil, mist-covered peaks of Ya’an YunTai Mountain. Here, endless emerald-green tea terraces cascade down the slopes like natural stairways to heaven. This is not just a picturesque view; it’s the vibrant heart of Ya’an’s tea culture. As you stroll through the carefully tended rows of tea bushes, inhale the fresh, clean air infused with the delicate aroma of tea leaves. You are in one of China’s premier tea-growing regions, where the ideal blend of altitude, climate, and soil produces exceptionally fragrant tea.
In this peaceful haven, away from the city’s hustle, you will connect with the land and grasp the true essence of “terroir.” It’s a place to slow down, immerse yourself in the timeless rhythm of nature, and witness the origin of every sip of tea.
