The best time should be from March to December, when the tea trees grow green, covering up a large area of hills turning into vibrant green carpets. From December onwards is the time of "hibernation" of tea trees, tea hills become diverse with strange lines and shapes, nagging the imagination of each visitor.

As the season changes, from Autumn to Winter, the fog embraces the hills densely, creating a poetic and magical scene. By the time of winter, the clouds in the sky rushed to blend with the fog to cover the path, making a stair to heaven.
