Want to have a taste of refreshing spring? Try China's Longjing tea, a popular variety of Chinese green tea. Spring is the best time to pick tea leaves. During this time, tea pickers are engaged in collecting first buds of the season by hand in tea gardens of Longwucha Village in Hangzhou, east China's Zhejiang Province. /VCG Photo

After the leaves are picked, they are left outside in the sun to dry and then immediately roasted by hand or by using special machines. /VCG Photo

The hilly topography and cozy climate in Hangzhou make it an ideal place for tea plantation, hence, it has become a major production region for China’s Longjing tea. /VCG Photo

The Longjing tea, embracing deep green color, strong aroma and sweet flavor, is hailed as the "Queen of Green Tea". /VCG Photo
