The residents here have been engaged in the tea industry for generations, committed to providing high-quality tea for tea lovers and to producing increasingly natural, safe and healthy tea drinks. When asked about his feelings about tea culture, he told us: "Tea culture is a concept, and people in different regions have different understandings of it. Although it is complicated, one thing is certain: just like managing any other business, tea culture also needs to be managed in order to keep up with the rapid development of modern society."

Origin

Anhua tea culture: Thousand-year tribute tea inheritance (tribute tea was set up in Tang and Song dynasties, and the "Four Protection Tribute Tea" in the Ming Dynasty was famous in the court and the public), black tea making skills (Qianliang Tea, Fuzhuan Tea) are listed as human intangible cultural heritage, and the ancient Tea Horse Road (from the "Tea Horse Department" in the Song Dynasty to the Wanli Tea Road in the Ming and Qing Dynasties) witnessed the integration of ethnic trade. Meishan culture permeates tea customs (pounded tea, tea pavilion ancient road), modern tea tourism integration (360,000 acres of tea gardens linked to the ancient Tea Horse Road and Yuntaishan Scenic Area), intangible cultural heritage revitalization ("The World Tea Road" live-action drama, moraine teaware cultural creation), technology empowerment (smart tea gardens, e-commerce live broadcasts), annual output value exceeds 20 billion, driving 100,000 people out of poverty, and becoming a model of rural revitalization.
