Anshi near Fengqing: tea walks and tea-making where Dianhong was born
Anshi village, Fengshan town, Fengqing County
In 1938 the tea expert Feng Shaoqiu made the first trial batch of Yunnan black tea, Dianhong, in Anshi, which now styles itself the first Dianhong village; the old tea grove he picked from still stands. It is 6 km from Fengqing town, with a walking trail and viewing platforms over the tea gardens. In the picking season you can pick leaves on the slopes and try making gongfu black tea at the tea culture centre (ask ahead), then visit the village's Dianhong living museum.
What locals sayTea companies bring study groups here to trace Dianhong's roots, and around Chinese New Year locals come for the village's camellia valley.
