Registration for the Jingshan Spring Trailwalk is now open! Join us on April 21st for a spring hike!
Preface
The emperor has not tasted Yangxian tea, and the herbs dare not bloom before it. It is better to return to the clear and lonely path, where the natural flavor and color remain in the mist and haze.
——"Picking Tea in Jingshan" by Jin Yu of the Qing Dynasty
"The beauty of April fades away, and the peach blossoms in the mountain temple begin to bloom."
In April, wherever you go in Jingshan, you will see a vibrant and colorful scene with blooming flowers.
The most eye-catching thing is the ubiquitous green. In the distance are tea gardens and green mountains, and under your feet are green land and flowing water.
“Zen and tea can enlighten the world, and Jingshan is the only one.”
In April, I searched for my soul’s home in the fragrance of tea sprouts all over the mountains. Spring is the best time to go out for an outing.
Explore the secrets of mountains and rivers and live a poetic life. Here, tea gardens and ancient temples are surrounded by mountains. It is located at the foot of the thousand-year-old Jingshan Temple. This is where the tea saint Lu Yu wrote "The Classic of Tea". Here, you will pass through Lu Yu Spring and cross the dreamy Shuangxi River.
This is the location of this hike - Jingshan.
Only this green, don't waste the good time of spring 🍵
On April 21, the registration channel for the "2024 "Trails Without End" Jingshan Spring Trailwalking Conference, which is held in the beautiful mountains and trails of the world, is now open!
