Yunnan, The Birthplace of Tea, Offers a Wealth of Tourist Attractions<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Visiting China today is quite a trial. But soon \u2014 we certainly hope \u2014 it once again will require little more than booking flights and planning itineraries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One region we are eager to explore is Yunnan Province in southern China, a California-sized sprawl of mountains, plains, rivers and forests that offers distinct ethnic diversity<\/mark><\/a>, beautiful scenery, laid-back and rural lifestyles and great food.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s also the birthplace of tea<\/a>, and for tea fanatics (hands raised), the province contains historic tea farms<\/mark><\/a> and ancient tea trees. Many groups offered Yunnan tea<\/a> tours; we trust these will return again soon. One common stop among tea lovers<\/mark><\/a> is Puerh City, which is at the center of the trade in Yunnan\u2019s most famous tea, fermented pu-erh.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Detailing the many attractions worth visiting in Yunnan<\/mark><\/a> could fill a book. For this tour of the province, we will focus on a handful of must-see points of interest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

The Stone Forest<\/h3>\n\n\n
\n
\"\"

Plan a trip to Yunnan\u2019s Stone Forest, the only karst stone forest in a subtropical plateau region in the world, for immersion in a spectacle of geologic splendor. Experiencing the glory of the Stone Forest doesn\u2019t require epic drives or treks. In fact, it\u2019s so pristine and tidy it\u2019s also known as the \u201cStone Forest Museum,\u201d as it\u2019s all essentially on display within a small area \u2014 just five square miles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The \u201ctrees\u201d in the forest are huge stone formations, formed after millions of years of erosion. With shapes like columns, cones, mushrooms, animals, plants, pagodas and even humans, the Stone Forest is one of the most sought-after attractions in Yunnan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition, the Naxi and Yi people call the Stone Forest area home. These ancient people have lived in the mountainous regions for centuries. Any visit to the Stone Forest should include the enjoyment of the folk customs of these ethnic minorities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Dianchi Lake<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Dianchi Lake is one of China’s most popular tourist resorts, due to its beauty.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

With clear water reflecting surrounding mountains and blue sky, Dianchi Lake is one of China\u2019s 12 national-level tourist resorts. The 118-square-mile lake, the largest in Yunnan and eighth largest in China, is also known as \u201cSparkling Pearl Embedded in a Highland,\u201d a name that suggests the appearance of the lake \u2014 as a pearl in a mountain setting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The lake encompasses numerous areas, including Haigeng Park<\/span><\/a>, which features a natural swimming pool attracting thousands of visitors a day during summer. The Yunnan Folk Custom Village enlivens the area, too, a community of the Yi, Dai and Bai ethnic minorities that invites visitors to experience their cultures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Yuanyang Rice Terraces<\/h3>\n\n\n
\n
\"\"
The Yuanyang Rice Fields are<\/em> simultaneousl<\/em>y artisti<\/em>c and<\/em> practica<\/em>l.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

The famous Yuanyang rice fields, engineering marvels created by the Hani ethnic minority, have deep roots \u2014 thousands of years \u2014 in Yunnan. Together, they create a mosaic of color and shape. Given the degree to which the fields are visually arresting, they serve as candy for photographers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A visit to the fields also introduces tourists to the culture of the Hani people, who live in mushroom-shaped houses and were built to complement the surrounding mountain landscape. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Lijiang Old Town<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Cafes, history, architecture, mountains, culture \u2014 Lijiang Old Town has it all<\/em>.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Lijiang Old Town served as a trading post for merchants hauling goods along the Ancient Tea and Horse Road. Lijiang is immensely popular with tourists, who come to tour an historic village blending elements from different nearby cultures \u2014 Han, Tibetan, Naxi, Yi and Bai. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cobbled streets, stone bridges, canals dotted with water wheels and lined with flowers characterize Lijiang. Visitors will find shops, cafes and hotels everywhere, as well as museums and beautiful parks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Tiger Leaping Gorge<\/h3>\n\n\n
\n
\"\"
Th<\/em>e roa<\/em>r of the Jinsha River,<\/em> the steep canyon walls and the mountains make Tiger Leaping Gorge a natural wonder<\/em>.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

One of the deepest gorges in the world, Tiger Leaping Gorge enthralls visitors with snow-capped peaks and the cascading Jinsha River, which is part of the Yangtze River. Among other things, ambitious hikers head to the area for the Tiger Leaping Gorge Trail, known as one of the world\u2019s great treks, a hike that climbs down into the gorge and follows the roaring river. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another advantage of visiting Tiger Leaping Gorge is exposure to the culture of the Naxi people, one of the 25 official ethnic minorities that call Yunnan home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

The Three Pagodas<\/h3>\n\n\n
\n
\"\"
Ancien<\/em>t, pristine and glorious, the Pagodas of Dali attract visitors from around the world<\/em>.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

We know from structures like the pyramids in Egypt and Aztec plazas and temples that ancient people could be impressive engineers. In China, the well-preserved Three Pagodas of Dali demonstrate engineering savvy stretching back 1,100 years ago.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The tall (16 stories), cream-colored pagodas, arranged in the shape of a triangle, draw tourists from around the world with their delicate beauty. Visiting them also invites stops at the Jinding Temple in the city of Dali, an arresting Buddhist temple that is a short walk from the pagodas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Shangri-La<\/h3>\n\n\n
\n
\"\"
Ganden Sumtseling Gompa. Monastery near Shangri-la in Yunnan<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

At 11,300 feet in elevation, 1,300-year-old Shangri-La, meaning \u201ca land of sacredness and peace\u201d in Tibetan, is a stirring site, steeped in Tibetan Buddhist culture and noted for sweeping mountain views.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The area, with its clear lakes, deep gorges, awe-inspiring mountains and dense forests, attracts people from around the world seeking natural beauty and exposure to Tibetan culture. More than 20 ethnic groups call Shangri-La home, with Tibetans comprising most of the population. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This offers a small slice of Yunnan\u2019s many tourist treasures. Once travel becomes easier again, we will return to Yunnan and explore its fascinating nooks. Until then, though, we will engage with the province through its tea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Yunnan Tea: Black Dragon Pearl<\/span><\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n
\n
\"\"
Black Dragon Pearl tea unfurls in the tea pot, broadcasting heady aromas and visual treats.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

As the birthplace of tea, Yunnan Province enjoys ancient tea history<\/mark><\/a> and a wide variety of tea styles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Black Dragon Pearl is exceptionally unique<\/mark><\/a>, a black tea that is handpicked by tea artisans and rolled into pearl shapes. This tea is smooth and malty, with hints of cacao and spice. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the Black Dragon Pearl\u2019s attractions is visual. To brew, drop a few pearls into a pot, pour hot water over them, and watch the pearls unfold in the liquid. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Yunnan Tea: White Crescent Pu-erh<\/span><\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n
\n
\"\"
This pu-erh is unusual in that it is made from white tea.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Pu-erh, Yunnan Province\u2019s famous fermented tea, comes in a variety of styles. Our White Crescent pu-erh, from Yunnan\u2019s Puerh City, is unique in that artisans craft it out of white tea, rather than black, green or oolong. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

White Crescent Pu-erh is made exclusively from the most tender and young tea leaves, the shape and color of which reminds people of light from a white crescent moon. The taste is naturally sweet and rich, without bitterness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Yunnan Tea: Golden Memory Cake<\/span><\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n
\n
\"\"
Mr. Zhou Bin Lian crafts this exquisite ripe pu-erh.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Well-known tea artisans craft some of Yunnan\u2019s most esteemed pu-erh teas. We are proud to carry Golden Memory Cake, a ripe pu-erh created by Mr. Zhou Bin Liang from Yunnan\u2019s Menghai County.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This glorious tea brews dark, clean and rich, with flavors of roasted grains. It offers a smooth and multi-layered mouth-feel and pleasing \u201cHui Gan,\u201d or sweet aftertaste.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
