茶圣陆羽曾痴迷于南京，在栖霞山废寝忘食地研究茶，并创作了传世之作《茶经》。春季到此追寻陆羽足迹、赏景、品茶，仿佛也懂了茶前世今生的故事。

南京是新马一带热门的旅游城市，但大多数游客更偏向欣赏美景和品尝美食，对南京的茶文化关注相对较少。去年，南京雨花茶制作技艺被列入人类非物质遗产名录后，当地官方更积极推广雨花茶文化。南京雨花茶的制作工艺比名茶碧螺春和西湖龙井还要复杂，制作出来的成品茶，条索紧直浑圆，锋苗挺秀；其香气馥郁而高雅，高扬持久，滋味鲜醇，回味甘甜。

不过，雨花茶文化区可能更适合初次体验，想要深入体验南京茶文化则需前往雨花茶制作技艺传承体验中心。该中心位于溧水区晶桥镇，是一座新的雨花茶基地，于今年开设。尽管规模较小，但这里的活动非常丰富，包括茶园、展示馆、炒茶区、品茗区等。游客可参加有关雨花茶的讲座、采摘茶叶、制作自己的茶并带回家，还可吃一顿农家饭。

了解了这么多有关南京的美丽茶景点后，现在跟你分享南京茶文化史上的趣闻。茶圣陆羽曾在南京的栖霞山上“废寝忘食”，专注于种茶、采茶、品茶和试茶，而《茶经》的初稿也源自此地！为了纪念陆羽，栖霞山风景区管理处在龙山之巅建造了一座“陆羽茶庄”，整座建筑采用复古的仿唐风格，一到三层主要提供精致茶点，登上4层则可俯瞰长江、紫金山和南京城，一览无余的美景。
