Jinguanyao Tea Fragrance Ecological Village Introduction
At the front end of the Jinguavliao River Bicycle Path lies the Jinguavliao Tea Aroma Ecological Village. Known for its Baozhong tea, Pinglin District in New Taipei City has always been an important tea production center in northern Taiwan. It is named the Tea Aroma Ecological Village because most of the residents make a living by cultivating and processing tea. With the opening of the Beiyi Highway, Pinglin has become an important relay station along the route, focusing on the cultivation of "Wenshan Baozhong tea" and "Qingxin Oolong tea," establishing itself as a tea production center. The tea plantations in Pinglin District are mainly located along Provincial Highway 42, the Jinguavliao River Industrial Road, and the hilly areas beside Beiyi Road. As one leisurely travels along the road, the rolling landscapes of tea gardens are enchanting, while the Beishi River and Jinguavliao River meander through the area, carving out many beautiful deep pools and valleys, reminiscent of the secret realm described by Tao Yuanming. This tranquil and serene atmosphere makes Pinglin District a scenic tea town combining beautiful mountains and waters with rich cultural heritage.
