White Tea Valley - China


Located in the valley of Hengkeng, Daxi Village, Tianhuangping Town, Anji County with an altitude of about 800 meters, the White Tea Valley is so named after a thousand-year-old ancient white tea plant, the only one extant in the valley. Beneath the tree are the Jiulongxia Scenic Area and the renowned "Anji Bamboo Forest" that is known as a major scene in the movie Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.
