On the north of Shizuoka city Hon.yama, a mountainous famous tea producing area. Here’s a photo gallery of the Tamakawa district.
Tôbettô 東頭: (before harvest), a very hard way to the top. At 800 m, this is the highest plantation in Shizuoka. Hand harvest of course. By the way, the “monorail” is a kind of frightening experience !
I choose to get back walking…. i was not the only one.
And here the tea from Tôbettô !
Thanks to those who guide me in this splendid area, and to Mr. Tsukiji, the owner of the Terao field and Tôbettô.
