Lugao tea gardens, Sun Moon Lake
About · Lugao, Sun Moon Lake
A village that has been growing black tea
since the Japanese colonial era
Lugao sits in the hills above Sun Moon Lake, in Nantou County — a small farming village that has been at the centre of Taiwan's large-leaf black tea industry since 1932, when the island's first modern black tea factory was built here.
ChaTravel works directly with the farming families of Lugao to turn that history into something you can walk through, taste, and take home.
