“The tea growers, dressed in traditional attire, are carefully picking tea leaves with a sense of reverence for the centuries-old tea culture in lush, vibrant tea plantations located in Hangzhou, the hometown of tea. The landscape is reminiscent of a Chinese ancient ink painting, with undulating tea trees resembling strokes of Chinese ancient ink painting, creating a tranquil and picturesque setting.”
