Experience a Tea-Infused Retreat in the Serenity of the Fuchun Hills
April 18, 2013
Nestled among picturesque hills and tea terraces in Hangzhou, Fuchun Resort is offering Leading Club members luxurious tea-infused retreats in the shadow of the Fuyang Mountain. Combining tea-picking of the famous Long Jing tea that is local to the area and serene tea sets over-looking the Resort's quiet lake, the Tea Retreat Package is available until June 30, right at the beginning of the tea-picking season.
The two-night stay Tea Retreat package not only provides luxury accommodation on one of Fuchun Resort's Garden Suites, but also the opportunity for residents to head out into the depths of the resort to pick their own Long Jing tea leaves. Best picked just after the sun has risen over the lake at the resort, residents join Fuchun Resort's very own Tea Master in the tea plantations. After collecting the tea leaves, residents will join the Tea Master in pan-frying the leaves to halt the oxidization process so that the leaves maintain their natural flavor as much as possible. The Tea Master then creates a fully packaged Fuchun Resort branded bag of tea leaves for the residents to take home.
Long Jing teas leaves are famous for the very tight and flat shape, with a light green color. The leaves are very delicate and have a uniform appearance, therefore maintaining the high quality and consistency for which Fuchun Resort's tea is known. Health benefits from drinking Long Jing tea are abundant due to the minimum preparation of the leaves prior to drinking and the beneficial antioxidants that help cleanse the body. It's known that one cup of white tea contains approximately 12 times as much antioxidants as a glass of fresh orange juice.
With the health benefits in mind, the Tea Retreat package also offers residents the opportunity of a 60-minute Himalayan yoga session with Indian Yoga Master Yogacharya Gireesananda who packs 25 years of experience around the world.
As an option, instead of yoga, residents can choose the Dragon Well Foot Treatment at the award-winning Fuchun Spa. Using the Long Jing tea picked from within the vast resort, Fuchun Spa's 60-minute signature Dragon Well Foot Treatment has become one of the Spa's signature treatments. The Long Jing tea helps to detoxify the skin in the feet and creates an invigorating feeling through the five stages of the treatment. Firstly the feet are soaked in tea-infused warm water, before the fresh Long Jing tea leaves are combined with mint and lime for a cleansing scrub that clears bacteria, removes dead skin and opens the pores of the feet to fully absorb the essence of the tea leaves. This is followed by a Sea and Epsom Salt rub that relaxes the feet before a massage and essential oils with peppermint and lemon are worked in to offer a cooling and refreshing finish.
