31To promote Kaohsiung’s indigenous mountain tea industry and local cultural characteristics, the Maolin National Scenic Area Administration is organizing the Seasonal Tea Banquet series. Centered on the themes of “Spring Awakening,” “Summer Resonance,” and “Autumn Harvest,” the program draws on seasonal changes and the distinctive settings of the mountain forest to create tea banquets rich in cultural depth and five-sense experiences, inviting the public to step into the woods and, under the guidance of tea masters, feel the flow of time and land through a cup of tea.
The first event, “Spring Awakening,” symbolizing the renewal of all things, debuted at Xinwei Forest Park during the April holiday period. “Summer Resonance” and “Autumn Harvest” will also be launched in August and September, allowing visitors to experience how the flavor of Taiwan Native Mountain Tea changes with the seasons. The events invite outstanding local tea masters to share the food-and-tea culture surrounding mountain tea and, through professional guidance, lead participants in experiences such as observing color, appreciating aroma, and tasting tea, offering a five-sense introduction to the distinctive qualities of Taiwan Native Mountain Tea.
In addition to the tea banquets, the event also features the “Market on the Mountain”, bringing together food and drinks with local Indigenous character, cultural and creative products, musical performances, and hands-on experiences to present the diverse cultural landscape of the foothill region. By linking the market with the tea banquets, the program enables visitors not only to savor mountain tea, but also to gain a deeper understanding of Indigenous community life and industrial development. This year, a travel safety promotion booth has also been set up, using a “travel safety promotion and visitor interactive prize quiz” activity to enhance public awareness of travel safety.
