Take part in a traditional tea ceremony and sample a variety of organic, locally grown teas while soaking in the peaceful surroundings. Continue deeper into the mountains to visit more tea plantations and enjoy views of the picturesque Thousand Island Lake. In the afternoon, settle into a second traditional tea house for another tea ceremony, offering a chance to slow down and connect with one of Taiwan’s most treasured traditions.
