A Sea of Tea Trees

Updated:2021-12-16 | By:Academy of Contemporary China and World Studies

A Sea of Tea Trees

Guizhou has nearly 7 million mu of tea plantations, the largest in China. In Yongxing Town, Meitan County, there is the world's largest sea of tea trees - contiguous tea plantations with a size of nearly 43,000 mu. The province has a rich variety of tea germplasm resources so it can offer a valuable pool of tea plant genes. China Tea Sea Park is planned to be built.

In 1980, a Siqiu tea seed fossil was discovered in Qing-long County, Guizhou Province, making it possible to trace the world's tea history back to 1.64 million years ago. This is the oldest tea seed fossil in the world and also the only tea fossil in the world.

中国茶海

贵州是中国茶园面积最大的省,有近700万亩茶园,在湄潭县永兴镇境内有世界上面积最大的茶海,连片茶园近4.3万亩。贵州茶树种质资源类型丰富,是宝贵的茶树基因库,已规划为中国茶海公园。

1980年,贵州省晴隆县发现四球茶茶籽化石,将世界茶历史推进了164万年,这是世界上发现的最古老的茶籽化石,也是全球唯一一块茶籽化石。
