Xihu Longjing tea is among the top ten famous teas in China, known to both Chinese and foreigners. But many people do not necessarily know the Xixi tea, since ancient times is also very high reputation.

Sun Qingchuan, a famous scribe of the Qing Dynasty, his home in Xixi, he wrote the book "Nanzhangzi" pointed out that Xixi, less water, land suitable for growing tea, because there is no field to plant, the tea leaves for rice. Xixi has a long history of growing tea, and the quality of tea is very high. Feng Mengzhen, a famous writer and Buddhist monk in the late Ming Dynasty, used to be a priest of the Nanjing Imperial College (equivalent to the president of the National University). After his death, he was buried in Xixi, and in his writings, he praised the tea of Xixi, saying, "The thickness of Xixi's tea profits is ten times that of Longjing."

Now in the deep pool, you can still taste the Xixi unique big bowl of tea. Large white porcelain bowl full of tea, mellow color, sweet mouth, priced at 1 yuan per bowl.
