Motuo County, with an average altitude of 1,200 meters, is shrouded in mist throughout the year. Its abundant rainfall nurtures the unique flavor of its tea leaves. Visiting Motuo in spring offers a perfect opportunity to arrange a rendezvous with its tea gardens and embark on a refreshing journey into the world of tea.
The Lagong Tea Garden is the closest tea plantation to Motuo County's town center. From March to May each year, the entire garden is filled with the fragrance of budding tea leaves. Standing in the garden, you can enjoy a distant view of Motuo County and also climb the Lagong Tower for a panoramic view of the Yarlung Tsangpo River.
