Huangcha Garden

The five peaks of Mount Mengding resemble a lotus flower, and Huangcha Garden is located right at the center of the blossom. More than 2,000 years ago, during the Western Han Dynasty, the divine tea master Wu Lizhen planted the seeds of spiritual tea in this garden. Since the Tang Dynasty, tribute tea has been picked here, and in the 13th year of the Chunxi era during the reign of Emperor Xiaozong of the Song Dynasty, it was officially named "Huangcha Garden." The garden is enclosed by stone railings, featuring a double-leaf stone gate at the front, with the stone inscribed couplet on both sides reading "Water from the Heart of the Yangtze River, Tea from the Summit of Mount Mengding," and the horizontal plaque inscribed with "Huangcha Garden."

On June 1, 2007, Huangcha Garden was announced as a Sichuan Provincial Cultural Relics Protection Unit by the People's Government of Sichuan Province.

On March 5, 2013, Huangcha Garden was declared a National Key Cultural Relics Protection Unit by the State Council of the People's Republic of China.
