Tan Cuong Tea Hills

Bacthai20 · CC0

The land of the 'finest tea', with lush rolling tea hills that produce the nation's renowned Thai Nguyen tea.

Not far from Thai Nguyen city, Tan Cuong reveals lush green tea hills rolling softly like waves in the morning sun. This is the cradle of Thai Nguyen tea, the 'finest tea' with its delicate green-rice aroma and a mild astringency with a sweet aftertaste. Visitors stroll among the rows of tea, watching farmers deftly pick the young buds, then visit a tea-roasting workshop to witness the traditional handcrafted process. A hot cup of tea savoured amid the boundless tea hills, with a cool breeze blowing through, is an unforgettably peaceful experience in the midlands of Thai Nguyen.
