Longjing tea be a very famous green tea in China,its price is 80yuans--6000yuans /500g by different grades, it is better you buy the grade which price is 300-500yuans/500g, of course ,it must be non-tourst price, or the tea is bad.

Hi,
The Longjing tea is the best famous green tea in China,Some tourists like to buy it when they visit Hangzhou city.how they will buy the tea with non-tourist price?
Where:
There is a big tea market in the JieFang LU ,near the Second People's Hospital of Zhejiang Province, you will find many tea shops service local customers.you can go to the market by taxi from Xihu,it is about 15-16yuans.
How:
1)District: More near the Xihu the place of orgin,More expensive the tea price.so it is better not to buy "the Xihu Longjing tea", you can choose the Hanzhou Longjing tea, the Qiantang Longjin tea,the Dafo Longjing tea,..etc.
or you can choose these Longjing tea came from another provinces.
2)Season: the Spring Longjing tea is lesser than the Autumn's one,and the price is expensive ,it is about more than 300yuans/500g.but the Autumn tea is about 80yuans/500g(I often buy this tea ).
3)Difference:the Spring Longjing tea is more sweet,more Vitamins than the Autumn's one, and the Autumn tea is strong when you taste them.so the Spring tea only can be made 3-4times,and the Autumn tea can be made more times.
4)Way: you can ask for a saler make many kinds of Longjing tea and taste them,you will find the Longjing with good price.
by the way ,no any tourist can buy real the Xihu Longjing tea ,specially the spring's one.even a local customer seldom can buy it ,too.
please remember to ask the district and the season when you buy the Longjing tea.
Good trip!
Carla
