Yiwu is a mountain town of Mengla County. A lot of rainforests are preserved in Yiwu. The Gua Feng Zhai village occupies only 2.74 square kilometers, elevation is approximately 1200 m, annual average temperature is 17 ℃, annual precipitation is 2100 mm. Gua Feng Zhai's ancient trees are spread in a 50-square-kilometer virgin forest. The excellent natural conditions and ecological surroundings have provided the best conditions for the growth of these tea trees. Because the tea trees in the virgin forest are shaded by other trees, they receive less sunlight and grow at a slower rate, resulting in high-quality tea leaves with a thick taste, powerful wild mountain flavor, low bitterness, and speedy return to sweetness.
