The warm and humid air from the Indian Ocean penetrates into the plateau along the Yarlung Zangbo Valley, bringing warm and humid climate and abundant precipitation to Yigong tea farms and surrounding areas.
Walking here, as if you are in the south of the Yangtze River.
The clouds and mist over the tea field seemed to be able to tear off a piece of it with just one hand.
The warm air is applied to the face, and every pore is breathing.
In the distance are towering mountains, covered with snow in winter.
When the snow melts and flows down the mountain, it is the sweetest spring water.
In the end, it flows into the tea farm and nourishes every tea tree.
