"Ten thousand years of golden Buddha mountain, thousand years of golden mountain red." On April 21st, the first Millennium Jinshan Red Ancient Tree Tea Picking Festival opened in Tea Tree Village, Delong Town, Nanchuan District, Chongqing.
Melodious drum music echoes through the mountains, and the sun shines into the tea mountains that spread across the mountains. The "Tea Classic" written by The Tang Dynasty Lu Yu has clouds: "Tea people, the southern Jiamuye." One foot, two feet or even tens of feet; there are two people in the Bashan Gorge, and they cut it down. "The wild ancient tea trees that grow in the low valleys of the Golden Buddha Mountain and Baizhi Mountain are similar to the tall tea trees in the Bashan Gorge River described in the Tea Classic. There is a wild ancient tea tree with a height of more than 7 meters, a diameter of about 0.6 meters, and a tree age of more than 1,000 years in The Tea Tree Village of Delong Town, which is known as the "Originator of Tea Tree".
At the opening ceremony, local tea farmers danced their own tea picking songs and dances, smiling and welcoming guests from all over the world, and everywhere was full of the joy of harvest. Tea farmers invite water to offer tea, praying for smooth wind and rain, a good harvest of ancient tree tea, smooth harvesting, and prosperity of the industry.
"Look at the mountain, the tea is awake..." As the tea farmer shouted the sound of the mountain, the tea farmer put on the bamboo basket, walked into the tea mountain, and began to pick spring tea.
Tea trees roam the mountains, lush and green, with young buds hanging from the branches. Unlike the common tea picking, tea farmers need to set up a wooden ladder to pick large tree tea and climb up the big tree to pick it. It can be said that every tip of tea bud comes from the dance on the treetops of tea farmers.
"Jinshan red, made from ancient tree tea, is a rare good tea." Liu Qinjin, honorary president of chongqing ancient tree tea research institute, commented on this.
