Thailand Oolong Tea or Wu Long Tea
The famous Oolong tea is from China, Taiwan and Thailand. Thailand High Mountain Oolong tea that is produced on this tea garden in Thailand is a direct descendant of Taiwan oolong. These tea plants are of the very same strains that are grown in Taiwan, using the same processing methods as well. And this garden is one of the few in Thailand with an elevation around 1000 meters - well within the Taiwan classification of high mountain tea. This garden does not use any chemical pesticides or fertilizers on its tea plants whatsoever.
Benefits of Oolong(Wulong)Tea:
- Burn more calories than green tea
- Reduce fattening effects of carbs
- Clarify skin
- Reverse signs of aging
- Promote healthy teeth
- Strengthen immune system
- Enhance mind-body wellness
- 100% natural and nourishing

Is Phuket safe? Phuket people friendly?
Phuket is not only friendly, it is one of the safest place worldwide and absolutely safe to travel to any part of the country. They are polite and helpful.
Even though Phuket is relatively safe, you had to be aware of pickpockets in crowded tourist area. I had met one during the vegetable festival trying to approach me but I kept avoid him.
Many governments post detailed security notices on the Internet. These are useful reading if you are concerned about safety when you travel:
- UK Foreign & Commowealth Office
- Australian Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade
