Tianran and Hannah are in the picturesque city of Shaoguan in Guangdong Province, South China. They try tea grown on Danxia landforms and feast on mountain produce, before getting hands-on with making rice noodles in a Hakka walled village. They learn about the Hakka people’s southward migration and the effect it had on local tea and food, and end their journey in a thousand-year-old Buddhist temple, seeing how the monks integrate their practice into everyday life, and discovering just why tea is so important to Zen.
