Xigui Ancient Tea Mountain
昔归古茶山
A famous tea area in Bangdong Township on the banks of the Lancang River, where ancient tea trees grow on steep slopes by the water. Xigui tea is known for its orchid-like fragrance and lingering sweetness.
Xigui is located in Bangdong Township, Linxiang District, on Mang Lu Mountain on the west bank of the Lancang River. The ancient tea gardens are spread along steep riverside slopes, with large day-night temperature differences and frequent clouds and mist. The Xigui pu'er produced here is one of Lincang's famous mountain teas, and together with Bingdao it is known as the 'Two Heroes of Lincang'. This is also the site of the Xigui ruins, dating from the Neolithic to the Ming dynasty. Visitors can drink tea at farmers' homes, see the ancient tea trees and look down on the Lancang River gorge. It is about 60 km from Lincang city. The mountain roads are narrow and steep, so hiring a car is recommended. Please do not climb the ancient tea trees.
