Follow the creek into tea country

Walk from Jiuxi’s valley entrance to the shaded streams, then follow the Longjing Village signs for a tea break. If you want a lighter outing, start in the village and take a short stroll among the lanes and tea-field edges.

The stream path includes uneven stones and crossings. After heavy rain, choose the village stop and keep the creek walk for a drier day.
