Chinanews, Beijing, March 17 – Two and a half kilos of Pu'er Tea, which were sent to the emperor in Beijing as tribute1 150 years ago, will be returned to Pu'er County2 (formerly called Simao County), Yunnan Province, its hometown.

 

The tea was found in the storage house of the Forbidden City in the 1960s. In fact, when archaeologists checked the storage house, only Pu'er Tea was well preserved, while other tea varieties had all gone bad.

 

The Pu'er Tea will leave the Forbidden City on March 19, and will reach Pu'er on April 8.

 

Grand celebrations will be held in all the cities along the route.
