Reisroute
Je tour begint met een bezoek aan Thousand Island Lake, gelegen in het zuiden van Shiding District, New Taipei City. Het stroomgebied van Feitsui Reservoir, omringd door heuvels, creëert het unieke landschap - een meer met duizenden eilanden, dat dezelfde naam deelt met het "Qiandao-meer" (letterlijk duizend eilandenmeer) in China vanwege de gelijkenis tussen de twee.
Het natuurlijke terrein en het klimaat maken de omgeving van Feitsui Reservoir een ideale landbouwgrond voor theeteelt, waaronder Wenshan Baozhong-thee en Dong Fang Mei Ren-thee. De theeplantage Bagua bevindt zich ook in dit gebied. Vanaf de top van de heuvel zien de netjes geplante rijen thee eruit als de symbolen van Acht Trigrammen, vandaar de naam. Je maakt hier een stop en geniet van het prachtige uitzicht op de eindeloze rijen theeplanten te midden van de glooiende heuvels om je heen.
Je tour gaat verder met een bezoek aan het Pinglin-theemuseum, een gebouw in Hokkien-stijl Siheyuan (vierhoekige binnenplaatshuis) dat kenmerkend is voor de traditionele woning van Taiwan. Het museum heeft een overvloedige verzameling traditionele oogstgereedschappen en -apparatuur, theeserviezen, theemonsters en nog veel meer die u leert over de geschiedenis en ontwikkeling van de Taiwanese thee-industrie. Bovendien biedt de AR-inhoud meeslepende ervaringen waarmee u kunt communiceren met de exposities en een beter begrip krijgt van de wereld van Taiwanese thee.
Aangezien je in Pinglin bent, mis je natuurlijk niet de kans om de authentieke Taiwanese thee te proeven in een lokale theewinkel. De eigenaar van de theewinkel zal een inleiding geven tot Taiwanese thee en je laten zien hoe je de thee op de juiste manier zet om de smaken van de theebladeren naar voren te brengen. U krijgt ook de gelegenheid om verschillende theemonsters te proeven.
Op de terugweg naar ons verzamelpunt kunt u ervoor kiezen om afgezet te worden bij Taipei 101.

Molly was a great guide to a relaxing tour of Thousand Island Lake, tea fields nearby, a visit to the Pinglin Tea museum, & a tea tasting session at a tea shop run by two brothers in their 70’s. It was wonderful to leave the crowds of Taipei for a few hours & enjoy the scenery in a lush & mountainous rural area. Molly guided the group through much of the tea museum & then gave us some time to explore on our own. Learning how to prepare & tasting three types of local tea was enjoyable too.

We had a fantastic tea tour today. Our guide David was so knowledgeable and friendly explaining about the area, tea culture and the history. He explained lots of things for us on the way too and from the area as well. The tour gave us a great introduction to the Thousand Island Lake area and Taiwanese Tea. The museum was very informative and our guide did a great job of leading us through it. The tea tasting was a wonderful experience- learning about the ritual and background of tea growing - it was fun and great to meet a family who have been involved in the tea business for generations.

The mountainside stops are outstanding and the tea presentation was educational and tasty. Definitely worth the price for an evening tour.

We drove through the mountains and saw the tea terraces with mountains and a winding river as the backdrop. We learned about the leaf hopper insect that makes the tea sweeter and guarantees that no pesticides can be used. The tea museum was very interesting, and there is a nesting area for egrets and other interstellar birds near the museum. Then we had an amazing experience learning to enjoy tea with a tea master. Grace was a great tour guide!

This is a very unique experience and one I would recommend. David, our guide, was informative and helpful.
Highly recommend for anyone who enjoys tea or just wants to get out of the city to see some beautiful scenery. Christina was a fantastic tour guide who provided a helpful overview of local history and culture, and Mr. Xi was a very safe and efficient driver. The tasting with the tea master was a particular highlight.
