Tea Travel

    Tea community nowadays rapidly growing - tea masters travels around the world to run the tea ceremonies, more online-tea-shops opening every year with better and better selections of popular and rare teas, new wave of passionate people learning "how-to grow, dry'n roast"  and run the tea farms in new destinations, such as Lao & Thailand, where they're creating new collections of Chen & Chu Pu-erhs, Oolongs and other teas.
     Being close to that "new wave", after visiting few places with healthy natural water source its became obvious that "the New World need Tea Travel" - where each place has remarkable both water source, perfect for the tea-making - waterfall, hot spring or other, and a nice area to enjoy freshly brewed tea. Also its should be option to stay - as the travel require - still plenty of magic places, even after 3-step filtering .

Below are few places, which perfectly suits the concept of Tea Travel in NakhonSi - Koh Phangan area of Thailand, from where I'm writing this post. Needed to note - however each of them has water source, place on nature to drink the tea and beautiful nature around, for the moment they don't provide additional related services, such as tea-ware, heating the water and etc.:

• Wan Chang Tara — before was a place of bathing for wild elephants,  cool water coming out here from the ground — its a water from the waterfall nearby, while waterfall itself didn't has any water when we visited it.
• Thapae Resort — with  waterfall-fronted rooms,  this small resort has a clear water, good both for bathing and tea making.
• Tarnsai Resort — overlooking the river Clay, Tarnsai lies in 5 km from namtok Sunanta - famous local waterfall.  Place has a wonderful area for the tea ceremonies.
• Krung Ching Hill Resort — has a mountain river on a bottom. In addition to this its the area of the largest waterfall in Thailand - Krung Ching, also nearby are the hot spring and underground cave spring — each with its own unique water. 
• Phupha Hill — lies near the second big waterfall in province - Karome, resort has a path to the small river and panoramic area for the non-stop tea time.
• Baan ChaiKhao Resort - hotel near Ai Khiao waterfall - one of the most beautiful in country.
• Meridian Khao Tam Resort - Rooms & Tea House on Koh Phangan - this memorable place of our open-air tea house has a large terrace for tea under the tree with amazing sea views .
