I am planning a trip to Fujian, hopefully to get to Anxi county and
visit some place where tea is produced. I suppose this is not the
best season to go, but if I go now and get familiar with the area I
can find out all the right times to go back. I know there was one
person with named Shen who asked for advice on travel to China for tea
tourism. If you saw any nice tea gardens in Anxi or other places in
Fujian, please let me know.

I especially want to visit Tieguanyin gardens, but any information
would be great. If you know anything, please help

Try Xiping, Xianghe and Gande. Autumn harvest is beginning of October
and spring harvest late April.

Let me know how it goes!

Thanks a lot Julian. Do you know the address or numbers for these
places, or do you just say the name and ask people to take you there?
I was also wondering if you might know the chinese characters for
these names.

thanks again,
Will

The entire region there is devoted to tea growing. So you should be
very easily find a tea garden to visit when you get there. Whether you
will find authentic tea and trustworthy person to deal with, of
course, is another problem, so it may be a good idea to develop a
palate for the tea there before you visit, so that you can tell the
good from the bad (tourists are much more likely to fall prey in those
places, no matter what precautions you take).

I am now holiday-ing in Asia so I don't have access to Chinese
characters. Drop me an email and I will remember to give you the
chinese characters of this tea villages once I return back to UK.

Depending on where you are, the nearest cities are probably the like
of Fuzhou and Quanzhou.

All the best. It is very exciting.
