Qixianfeng Tea Plantation – Make Your Own Tea
Located in Baisha Town, Yangshuo, Qixianfeng Tea Plantation sits at about 800 meters above sea level. Seven peaks resemble the Big Dipper, and the terraced tea fields offer stunning karst views. For about 1.5 hours, you’ll:

Put on a bamboo hat and carry a tea basket

Learn tea-picking techniques from local farmers (simple English instructions)

Try “frying, rolling, and drying” tea leaves by following a master’s demonstration

Taste a cup of green tea made from your own leaves and learn basic Chinese tea etiquette

Walk along the terraced fields and enjoy panoramic views of karst peaks

Yulong River Bamboo Raft – Drift on the “Little Li River”
After lunch (optional, at your own expense), head to the Yulong River for a bamboo raft ride. With no engine noise, you’ll only hear the bamboo pole pushing through the water. Enjoy rice paddies, bamboo groves, and limestone peaks on both banks.
