In the past, people were taking tea leaves and putting in the bag and transported these over to the bottom station where the trading center was at. How did they do that? They used the rope that was connected from the top station to the bottom station so it gets them to bring these bags there faster. After that, Dalton and I went to the tea factory where all tourists went to. We were stunned by how the tea were manufactured. We always thought it’d be very simple process but it was way more complicated than we thought. It took them around four to six filters to have a full quality bag of tea. I was in awe of whoever designed the machines in the tea plantation. It was clearly complicated and useful. No need for me to explain further because everything you need to know is in the video. But I will share you few facts: On any given day, over one half of the American population drinks tea. On a regional basis, the South and Northeast have the greatest concentration of tea drinkers. Much of the world’s tea is grown in mountainous areas 3,000 – 7,000 feet above sea level, situated between the Tropics of Cancer and Capricorn in mineral-rich and acidic soil. Leading tea-producing countries include Argentina, China, India, Indonesia, Japan, Kenya, Malawi, Sri Lanka, Tanzania and Taiwan. Tea is nearly 5,000 years old. It was discovered in 2737 BC by Chinese Emperor Shen-Nung, also known as the “Divine Healer,” when as legend goes, some tea leaves accidentally blew into the Emperor’s pot of boiling water. In the end, their tea was really good! Video credits: Dalton Kramer
