Modern drinkers owe much to Lu Yu, the 'tea saint', who unlocked the mysteries of China's signature beverage, Cheng Yuezhu reports.

Although Miaoxi Temple is now nowhere to be found, and the location of Zhushan Hill for a long time was under dispute, historical geographer Chen Qiaoyi conducted research and stated that Zhushan Hill is in today's Miaoxi town, where Zhushan Cultural Park has been built as a part of the town's Xisaishan Holiday Resort.

"At Miaoxi Temple, Lu Yu spent three years writing the first draft of The Classic of Tea. He then traveled to a lot of places to conduct further research while making further modifications," says Lyu Jianliang, deputy director of Xisaishan Holiday Resort.

On Tomb Sweeping Day this year, around 150 tea experts and enthusiasts gathered at the park, offering incense and flowers in front of a monument in commemoration of Lu.
