Longjing Mountain Tea Culture Village
Longjing Mountain is located on Shifeng Hill in Hangzhou’s Longjing area, renowned worldwide for Longjing tea and Hupao spring water. Spanning over 130 acres and with a total investment of more than 70 million yuan, Longjing Mountain Park offers visitors eight major attractions: Mist Forest Wonderland, Tea Art Performances, Stone Forest Spectacle, Vine World, Folk Art Shows, Lovers’ Valley, Butterfly Valley, and Gathering Dragon Platform, allowing tourists to enjoy truly novel sights and healthy leisure through their visit.
Highlighting the region’s unique cultural charm, Longjing Mountain Park has also specially designed attractions such as “Imperial Tea Slope,” “Gathering Dragon Platform,” and the century-old “Weng Longshun Tea House.” These allow visitors to admire the beautiful mountain and lake scenery of West Lake from afar while watching local tea farmers plant, pick, process, and taste Longjing tea, experiencing the lifestyle and charm of the Longjing community.
Longjing tea from Longjing Mountain Park has long been famous both at home and abroad. As the only mountain park within the West Lake Scenic Area, Longjing Mountain Park promotes its mountain and water landscapes, humanistic traditions, and natural fun. It gathers the essence of millennia-old Longjing regional culture, using high-tech methods to shape the natural karst landform into scenic landscapes. The park features the cutting-edge “Longjing Tea Ceremony” tea art performance and has pioneered China’s unique health tourism project—“Longjing Mist Forest”—allowing visitors to immerse themselves in a mystical fairyland while also benefiting from health and beauty treatments.
Longjing Village: Longjing Village is located southwest of the West Lake Scenic Area, surrounded by mountains on all sides, with a general terrain that is higher in the north and lower in the south. The village has a permanent population of around 800 people and nearly 800 acres of high-mountain tea plantations. To the northwest, Beigaofeng (North Peak), Shifeng (Lion Peak), and Tianzhufeng (Tianzhu Peak) form a natural barrier, blocking cold northwest winds. To the south lies Jiuxi Valley, a deep and wide valley that leads directly to the Qiantang River. The prevailing southeast winds in spring and summer easily enter the valley, and the well-ventilated geographical conditions provide ideal advantages for the growth of Longjing tea. The Longjing tea produced here ranks first among the “Lion, Dragon, Cloud, Tiger” varieties. Legend has it that Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty traveled to the south of the Yangtze River… Longjing Village detailed information++
