Hidden in the maze of Hangzhou Longjing Green Tea Garden! Weekend and friends drove to Hangzhou Longjing to drink tea, and Hangzhou Longjing Maoju, who has been obsessed with punching cards, has to say that this secret hidden in Longjingshan Wanmu Tea Garden is so great. Close your eyes, open your arms, listen to the sound of the sound of the sky in the green ocean, The quietness of a deep-rooted mountain village flows through my thoughts. Mountain flowing water, the bells of the Brahma clock, giving people the spirit of ecstasy; Huguang Tower Shadow, Cang Song Cui Bai, giving people the spirit of spring breeze; light cold Hey, drizzle, giving people the freedom to discuss the spirit of the evening.

Last winter, I had a bowl of dumplings for the Winter Solstice at Longjing Maoju. After more than half a year, summer has just passed, and the autumn Longjing Tea Mountain is still green. I came to Longjing Maoju again, just for a fairy afternoon tea. "Know the mountains and enjoy the water, live in the dense forest", the Maoju Hotel in the middle of Longjing Village is still the way I am familiar with. It's just that the treasure place will always be excavated by those who are interested. This time I came to have afternoon tea, and I met several foreign friends who came from Europe to experience the beautiful scenery of Hangzhou. They really know how to choose a place. Along the mountain path to the Maoju Hotel surrounded by tea gardens, there are familiar old camphor trees. When I came to the room I had stayed in, I leaned against the green mountains and waters, drank a pot of good Jiuqu Hongmei, and outside the bathroom window of the room, the green of the tea tree was swaying. This green seems to have never disappeared. This framing frame is really not tired of shooting a hundred times. Maoju's afternoon tea is arranged outdoors, overlooking Longjing Village, and the tea garden is spread out in front of you in layers. Looking further away, it is a lonely tree on the tea mountain. The weather that was supposed to rain actually came out unexpectedly. The tea and tea seats came up, matched with the strong green in front of you, and there was an illusion in the fairyland. This situation can only be understood and cannot be conveyed. Only this green, look at the thousands of miles of landscape. Afternoon tea has my favorite osmanthus Jiuqu Hongmei and cheese cake~ Come to Maoju to feel this strong autumn, after a while, the full yard of osmanthus will also open, drinking tea under the osmanthus tree, this is the most beautiful meaning in the four seasons.

The tea field room has a super large floor-to-ceiling window, with a large window facing the tea field on the north side, where you can see the tourists outside, take photos, make tea, eat fruit, and watch TV after entering the room. It takes a few minutes to walk to Longjing Village. The fried shrimp is very delicious and worth eating. The price of dishes is not cheap, two people ordered three dishes, a noodle 290 yuan. The Longjing Mountain is particularly quiet at night, and the village rests very early, so it's best to go to dinner at six or seven. It's too scary to go up the mountain too late. The next morning, I was woken up by the sound of birds at six or seven. Then go to the mountain to climb, eat a hotel breakfast, it is worth mentioning that I personally think the scallion oil noodles are very delicious. The Eighteen Trees Scenic Area is 10 yuan per person. : After morning exercises around eight or nine, go back to take a bath, play with the hotel's dog for a while, sit on the mountain and have a cup of Longjing tea, very comfortable.
