About Longjing Tea Fields

Rows of low tea bushes make the working landscape unusually readable, with village houses and teahouses close to the plantations. This visit works best as a view of cultivation, followed by a tasting in the village. Picking and processing are seasonal activities; a field visit does not itself include permission to enter planted rows or take leaves.

What to look for

  • Contour-following tea rows on the slopes around Longjing Village.
  • Lion Peak’s tea-growing setting, linked to the local imperial tea tradition.

Location & getting there

Getting to Longjing Tea Fields

Use Longjing Village below Lion Peak as the arrival point and continue along permitted village paths beside the plantations. Confirm any hosted picking or tasting separately with the grower.

General visit reminders

Allow room for the terrain and weather when choosing your route. Check the operator’s current trail, shuttle and cableway notices where applicable, and confirm the return connection before setting out. A broad landscape pin does not identify every trailhead or access point.
