Anhua dark tea has always been favored by tea merchants and northwest minorities. It has had a sudden rise in social status on account of its lipid-decreasing effect in the past few years.

Last year, Anhua realized a comprehensive output value in tea and tourism of 8.59 billion yuan. Specifically, the county received 1.516 million tourists with income of nearly 800 million yuan, In addition, 920 tons of tea was sold via tourism with sales revenue of 120 million yuan.
