Anxi County, Tea production district in Quanzhou, China

Anxi County is a rural region in southern Fujian province characterized by rolling hills and river valleys that shape its landscape. The area contains villages and towns interspersed with tea fields that dominate the countryside.

The county evolved over centuries from a trading center into an agricultural region specializing in tea cultivation. This transformation established it as one of China's primary sources of Oolong tea.

The name comes from two classical terms meaning safety and joy, reflecting values that shaped the region's identity. Visitors can see this heritage expressed in local temples and during seasonal festivals that bring communities together.

The best time to visit is between May and October when weather conditions are dry and tea farming activity is at its height. Wear sturdy footwear since paths in rural areas can be uneven.

The region contains natural caves with distinctive rock formations that attracted people throughout history. Some of these sites show traces of human habitation from early periods.
