Wuyishan

Wuyishan is a county-level city in Fujian Province that spreads across mountainous terrain and borders Jiangxi Province. Natural hills and waterways define the region's boundaries and shape its physical character.

The region became a settled area during the Ming Dynasty when permanent communities took root in the hills. This early development laid the groundwork for the area's later growth.

Tea cultivation shapes the visible landscape throughout the region, with plantations covering the hillsides. This agricultural tradition deeply influences how locals relate to and use the land.

Wuyishan North Railway Station connects the area to larger cities via two important rail lines. Visitors can also reach the region by road, though mountain terrain requires extra travel time.

The city maintains sister city ties with places as far as Honolulu, Hawaii and the Blue Mountains in New South Wales, Australia. These distant connections reflect unexpected global relationships for a mountain community in central China.
