Description

Taiwan has a long and involved relationship with tea, which is something you can learn more about on a trip to the town of Pinglin. At the eastern end of Thousand Island Lake, Pinglin is the perfect place to visit if you want to learn more about Taiwanese tea. The town’s claim to fame is Pouchong or Baozhong tea, a type of Oolong that originates from Pinglin. This and much more information on tea culture in Taiwan can be found in the exhibits at the Pinglin Tea Museum. Of course you can also try the local tea at one of Pinglin’s many tea houses or out at a nearby tea plantation. Besides its tea, Pinglin has quite a pretty riverfront area, best viewed from its suspension bridge.
