Songyang: Tea, Traditions, and Innovation

In Zhejiang’s misty and mountainous southwest, Songyang county has, in many ways, remained unchanged for centuries. Here, artisans cast traditional iron knives in street-side stores, and communities participate in ancient fengshui practices.

Local chefs steam hand-cut noodles and farmers grow local green tea that is now thought of as some of the best in China. However, beyond the county’s traditional lifestyle lies a surprising modern art scene.

Tea fields have become home to modern teahouses where young entrepreneurs reinvigorate the culture of their ancestors and dusty sugar factories have been transformed into modern architectural masterpieces.
