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:

  1. Burn more calories than green tea

Is Phuket safe? Phuket people friendly?

Most travelers comment on the friendliness and hospitality of Phukets. It really is exceptional.

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.

Another thing is "Dont ever insult Buddha or the King", in fact you must bow to them. Thai people praise the King and Buddha. I think you had heard a news recently that a foreigner was sentence to life when he insult the King poster. So taking this advice we had a wonderful experience with the Thai People.

Many governments post detailed security notices on the Internet. These are useful reading if you are concerned about safety when you travel:
