A steaming cup of tea and an Indian citizen is the perfect couple. Tea is as dearer to Indians as is Cricket and Politics. Unsurprisingly, India is the second biggest tea producer in the world only after China. However, Indians alone are the largest consumers of the tea that is produced. Tea production in India started during the old days of colonial rule. Large acres of land were initially converted into tea fields. Apart from the distinct flavor, a lush green tea field surrounded by majestic snow-filled Himalayan landscapes is nature at its best.

‘Tea tourism’ is a relatively newer concept and India totally monopolizes in this field. Tea tourism is not just tasting aromatic and premium quality tea, it is more about enjoying a peaceful holiday in the middle of green tea gardens encircled by big mountains and gargling streams. Luckily, India’s amazing geographical location makes them a paradise for tea cultivation. This provides visitors to get the best taste of nature.

Here are some of the premium locations in India where one can get the best taste of tea tourism:

· Assam: All thanks to the bright colored fresh and unadulterated tea, this north-eastern state is best known as the tea capital of the world. If one is a vivid lover of tea then the tireless tea gardens will be the closest they can get to tea. The Brahmaputra valley encircled with hilly terrains and a mild cold climate makes this place perfect for tea plantation. The aromatic smell of the finest quality tea fills the air. Nothing pleases a tea-lover’s soul more than the sheer delight of spending some quality time with family in a charming tea bungalow flooded with fresh air. The magical views of tea gardens hypnotized by greenery are surely something which one should not miss.

· Darjeeling: Light-colored aromatic Darjeeling tea has international admirers. Lush green tea gardens accompanied by serene Himalayan backdrop are the main reason behind the massive popularity of tea tourism in Darjeeling. To witness nature at its best, stay in a tea estate or a tea bungalow. The tea resorts in Darjeeling offers uninterrupted peace. Visit a tea factory and witness making of the finest quality of Darjeeling tea. Tea tasting sessions are another reason why one will never get bore of this place. The organic food served is delicious and healthy.

· Munnar: Tea tourism in India is not just limited to the North-East. Munnar in Kerala is one of the best hill stations in India. This unique hill station is tailor-made for people who want to dive into the delightful world of tea far away from the maddening rush of fast-paced city life. Lush green tea gardens and picturesque mountain scenery is a delight to eyes. The pure aromatic black and green tea leaves of Munnar produces the finest quality of tea.
