Tea Plantations


I had never seen Tea Plantations close up before and the first time was at Houshan when we climbed the mountain to the Temple.

We walked through the rows of tea growing and noticed folk picking leaves possibly for their own use.

Since then I have seen many tea plantations between Shaoxing and Hangzhou in particular. They are on many hills around these areas, as no doubt they are in many areas of China.
