Hangzhou Meijiawu Tea Picking and Tea Roasting Experience

About this activity

Just a short drive from West Lake , Meijiawu Tea Village offers an immersive journey into Longjing tea culture. Don traditional blue-and-white garb, learn to identify premium "one-bud-one-leaf" shoots, and under expert guidance, try the centuries-old iron-wok roasting technique—feeling the leaves crisp and release their signature nutty aroma. After roasting, steep your own creation in spring water, and savor its fresh, grassy sweetness—a moment that ties all the steps together. This hands-on experience yields more than skills; you'll gain insider knowledge on tea grading, brewing, and history. Perfect for families with children who love tactile learning, culture enthusiasts, and adventurous travelers seeking authentic encounters, this activity transforms a casual visit into a profound connection with Hangzhou's rural heritage. You'll leave with a newfound respect for every cup and a story worth telling.
