Journey to my roots: Day 4 (Hangzhou - Yiwu - Hengdian)

Highlight: chinese specialty #1-tea farm! Got to taste AA and emperor grade green tea here and learnt a lot about tea. Awesome guide with and great sense of humour!


Lowlight: hotel. I'm sorry but with my keen sense of smell, this doesn't cut it.

Weirdest experience: went to the Hengdian's Chinese-style Universal Studios and noticed something must be wrong when I saw everyone with a bucket. Watched a show which started like some Chinese opera but then water started flooding the arena. Rave music plays then people started splashing each other with water using their buckets...wow...quite the experience. So that's what young kids do here to entertain themselves.
