China is the homeland of tea and boasts some of the best tea in the world. Chinese tea generally falls into five major categories: Green tea, Black tea, Oolong tea, Jasmine tea and Brick Tea, otherwise known as the Pressed tea.

The best Green Tea is Dragon Well Tea which grows on the hills west to the West Lake, Hangzhou.

The best brands of Black Tea are Qihong of Anhui in East China and Dianhong of Yunnan in southwest china.

The most famous Olong Tea is mainly found in china’s south areas including Guangdong, Fujian and Taiwan region.

A tour to Hangzhou is easily combined with a visit to a tea plantation.
