Shushan

April 08, 2026 — Andrew Fowlie

Visited Shushan, a village in northwestern Suzhou at the base of a mountain. Thoroughly enjoyed the boardwalk through the terraced tea farms and fruit orchards.

The grace and stamina of the workers picking the tea was inspiring. I've since read that they are growing Biluochun tea, one of the ten great teas of China, and that the mixture of tea gardens and fruit orchards enhances the flavor of the tea.
