Haisi ancient tea
Guangxi Beihai, called Hepu County in ancient times, is the earliest port of departure of the Maritime Silk Road and a national longevity city. The ancient tea produced in Dalian Mountain, Liuhu, Beihai, was exported overseas through the Maritime Silk Road, becoming the earliest export tea in China, and was called Hayes ancient tea. Haisi ancient tea, a specialty of Beihai, is one of the five specialties of Beihai, and is known as Beihai tea.

During the voyage of the ancient Maritime Silk Road, the crew supplemented vitamins and adjusted their diet by drinking four kinds of ancient Hayes teas, such as raw red and cooked silver. These four kinds of Hayes teas represent spring, summer, autumn and winter all the year round, symbolizing the peace of the four seasons. They are called Beihai Sidao Tea (Hayes Sidao Tea). Now, Beihai Sidao Tea is a special tea ceremony in Beihai to bless the peace of the four seasons.
Beihai yincha
Beihai Silver Tea is a kind of ancient tea of Hayes and one of the four famous teas in Beihai. It belongs to Beihai specialty white tea. Because tea buds are as white as silver, they are very precious. There is a famous scenic spot in the local area, so it is called Yincha. Beihai Silver Beach and Beihai Silver Tea are also called Beihai Double Silver, and there is a saying that "swimming in the silver beach and drinking silver tea make money". Beihai Yincha is the only tea named Yincha in China, which represents financial resources and wealth. In the 16th year of Guangxu reign in Qing Dynasty, Empress Dowager Cixi tasted the silver tea from Beihai and presented the plaque of "Fugui Changchun" to praise the beauty, beauty and wealth of tea. The legend of "a box of silver tea and a box of silver" is circulating in Beihai. When staying, getting married, getting married and doing business, I like to collect a box of Beihai silver tea as a treasure of the town house, a treasure of the town shop and a family heirloom. Beihai Yincha heirloom won the excellent prize of "Guangxi Courtesy" special tourism commodity competition sponsored by Guangxi Tourism and Culture Department.
