Pu'er City, located in the southwestern part of China's Yunnan Province, is an eco-city famous for its Pu'er tea. Located near the Tropic of Cancer, Pu'er enjoys a tropical monsoon climate, with over 70% of its area covered by forests, and is rich in biodiversity, making it an important part of Yunnan's "Kingdom of Plants and Animals".
As the center of the world's tea tree origin, Pu'er has a history of tea cultivation of more than 1,300 years. Pu'er tea is renowned worldwide for its unique fermentation process and aging characteristics, and the Ancient Tea Horse Road stretches from here to Tibet and Southeast Asia, witnessing the long history of tea culture exchanges between China and foreign countries.
Pu'er is home to 14 ethnic minorities, including Hani, Yi, Lahu, Wa and Dai, accounting for 61% of the total population. Each ethnic group retains its unique language and writing system, costumes, festivals and traditional customs, such as the "October Year" of the Hani ethnic group and the "Torch Festival" of the Yi ethnic group, which present a rich and colorful picture of ethnic culture.
The city boasts two national nature reserves, Mount Wuliang and Mount Mourning, and is home to wild ancient tea tree communities with a history of more than 1,700 years. Pu'er is not only an important habitat for Asian elephants, but also China's only National Green Economy Experimental Demonstration Zone, known as the "Pearl of the Green Sea".
