Why is Wubaoquan famous?

Most famous mountains have famous springs. Baiyun Mountain, which Guangzhou people are proud of, has numerous scenic spots and famous springs.

Among them, the Wubao Spring located in the Shuangxi Ancient Temple (now Shuangxi Villa) is highly praised for its clearness and sweetness that soothes the throat.

Shuangxi Ancient Temple is built in the middle of the mountain on the east side of Baiyun Mountain. Two clear streams gurgling from both sides, hence the name "Shuangxi". It is said that because "the land is several feet high, it is difficult to get water". Later, the divine monk Jingtai used his Zen rod to dig into the ground and springs gushed out. "The taste is sweet, especially compared to other springs", so it was named Wubao. Use the water here to make tea, which is mellow, sweet and smooth, leaving a fragrance and soothing your throat. The tofu curd made with spring water is famous for its sweetness, tenderness and smoothness.

The current Shuangxi Villa was rebuilt in the 1960s and has hosted the older generation of revolutionaries such as Zhu De, Dong Biwu, Zhou Enlai, and Chen Yi. Surrounded by green mountains and green waters, the environment here is very quiet and elegant. In recent years, many tourists have come here to explore and taste "Wubaoquan Tea".
