Yame central tea plantation
©福岡県観光連盟
A vast expanse of green tea fields spread out into a distance. This extensive tea plantation (covering 70 hectares) is a major production area for Yamecha, a brand of tea that is representative of Fukuoka.
The observation deck on the rooftop offers breathtaking views of the land carpeted in green. The best time to visit is during the tea-picking season from April to mid-May, when one can revel in the impressive 360-degree views of the tea plantation. On clear days, you can enjoy panoramic views of the Ariake Sea and the Shimabara Peninsula. Tasting sessions and sales campaigns for new tea are held during the new tea season (around May), so visitors can then have their fill not only of the scenery, but also of the fresh aroma and flavor of tea.
At the cafe space at the observation deck, visitors can also enjoy a cup of Yamecha while gazing out over the tea plantation.
