Pin Lin: A day filled with everything TEA!

Pin Lin is a little town 30 mins south east of Taipei.
We visited a tea museum, garden, tea degustation and tried local delicacies which were all infused with tea for a one of a kind taste experience!
The caffeine made me uber hyper by the end of the day...weeee

Tea pots everywhere...this could be a scary place for teapotphobic people..., tea pots ornamented everything from street lamps to bridge decorations...



I'm a little teapot short and stout..


Pin Lin old street..


You want to try tea drinks, candies and snacks, noodles, rice, pudding...she's got them all!



Tea pork stew..yum



We enjoyed our tea pork stew rice by the river...


Tea sticky rice with taro or carrot...



Fried tea leaves...crunchay



At the tea museum...this is how they cultivate tea...


We tried a couple kinds of tea from Pin Lin and high mountain oolong as well..I think! I just drank whatever that was given to me!


A beautiful tea garden where people enjoy their tea in serenity..
