Jiqingli Black Tea Valley
积庆里
A tea garden scenic area in the heart of Yingde black tea country, with terraced tea hills, tea culture experiences and rural guesthouses.
Jiqingli Black Tea Valley lies in Hengshitang Town, Yingde. Terraced tea gardens stretch across the surrounding mountains. The area is a major production base for Yingde black tea (Yinghong No. 9) and a model site for rural revitalization. Visitors can hike the tea gardens, watch tea processing, taste and buy tea, and stay in tea-themed guesthouses or eat at tea restaurants. Spring tea season is the busiest time, and after rain the clouds drifting over the tea hills make for striking photos. It is about 30 km from downtown Yingde and requires a car. It can be combined with Baojing Palace and the Yingde Tea Fun Garden.
