Jingmai Mountain | A Cafe Under the Sacred Tree, Yunnan's Ultimate Chill

As the first intangible cultural heritage of tea culture in China and even the world, Jingmai Mountain's popularity has skyrocketed. But did you know? Hidden within Jingmai's Ongji ancient village is a cafe nestled under a banyan tree, attracting coffee lovers with its unique attitude and self-consistent spirit. Strictly speaking, it's not purely a cafe, as it also sells tea and tea-based drinks. The owner, originally from Lincang, first came to Jingmai because of tea. Later, their interest in coffee grew, and their reputation blossomed, leading to the cafe as it is today. The cafe offers a wide variety of beans, and the owner is happy to share their coffee knowledge. Although not "professionally" or "systematically" trained, they possess a self-assured pride, insisting on manually roasting beans and hand-pouring every cup of coffee. They live in harmony with Jingmai's sunrises and sunsets, and the ever-changing sea of clouds. This is perhaps Yunnan's unique chill: the essence of living is life itself, and living your own life well is more important than anything else.
