Landslides at Longfengxia tea garden, Shanlinxi

As we move around to the other side of the ridge, we are horrified at the sight of the devastation left by the long weeks of torrential rain we’ve been having this Spring. The same factory you saw in the preceding pic. is now without a tea garden. And another tea factory on the left is clinging for its life. Some of you may also be intrigued by the brownish colour of the tea bushes on the right. They’ve simply been cut down after the spring picking to generate a new, fuller picking table.
