Karst is a unique landform evolved in the carbonate rocks, which demonstrate the forces of nature. South China is famed for its rich and diversified Karst landforms. South China Karst was inscribed in the World Natural Heritage List by UNESCO in June 2007.
South China Karst signifies the finest examples of karst topography in China and the world. Extending over 500,000 sq kilometers (193,051 sq miles), South China Karst is mainly scattered in Southwest China, comprising three typical karst areas: Shilin Karst (Stone Forest) in Yunnan Province, Libo Karst in Guizhou Province and Wulong Karst in Chongging Municipality.

South China Karst represents the unrivalled features of the tropical and subtropical karst terrain. The South China Karst listed in UNESCO World Heritage List covers a total area of 1,460 sq kilometers (564 sq miles). The core zone takes up an area of 480 sq kilometers (185 sq miles), and the buffer zone 980 sq kilometers (378 sq miles). Shilin Karst features its numerous odd-shaped stone formations, hence the name of Stone Forest. Shilin Karst is also the world’s only karst landscape in the subtropical plateau area, and enjoys the fame of ‘the First Wonder of the World’. The representative scenic area in Shilin is the Nagu Stone Forrest, characterized by typical karst terrain evolved from dolomite rocks.
Libo Karst is renowned for the cone karst and tower-shaped karst land formations, which populate many brilliant karst scenic areas. The Maolan Karst Forest Natural Conservation is a splendid karst ecosystem featuring biodiversity. In the conservation area, the primeval subtropical karst forest is well preserved. The favorable natural environment makes this scenic area an ideal habitat for thousands of rare and endangered animals.
Wulong Karst is renowned for its special karst cave system, grand natural stone arch bridges and the eroded tiankeng (giant limestone doline) and fissures. It is composed of three karst scenic areas: Furong Cave, Three Natural Bridges and Houping Tiankeng (Houping Giant Doline).
Geologically, South China Karst evolved due to the tectonic uplift of Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. It has evolved into an integrated tropical and subtropical karst ecosystem. It is of significance in studying geological evolution.

Numi Organic Tea Launches new tea Category: Organic PUERH Tea
Numi Organic Tea Launches new tea Category: Organic PUERH Tea
Oakland, CA (PRWEB) December 10, 2008
Known for their innovative Flowering Tea and pure ingredient tea blends, Numi Organic Tea launches a new line and category of tea called Puerh. Although all teas come from the same plant, Camellia Sinensis, Puerh is made from a different variety that grows on wild 500 year old, tea trees, known as “broad leaf tea”, found in the pristine Yunnan Mountains of Southwestern China. The maturity and special variety of these trees make it desired for the aging process that makes Puerh. The leaves undergo an unusual fermenting, ripening and aging process which results in Puerh’s unique earthy flavor and special health properties. Chinese people have written about the health benefits of Puerh since ancient times.
Taste – Puerh processing is different from regular white, green, oolong or black tea. After the leaves are picked, they are piled into heaps, dampened frequently for a period of 60 days and rotated every 10 days during this time to ensure all the tea is fermented. The tea is then dried and ready to be compressed into bricks for aging, or left as loose tea which Numi uses in its tea bags. Different to black tea, Puerh can be steeped long for a smooth yet bold cup without the bitterness. Its taste is rich and smooth, slightly sweet with hints of malt. A straight Puerh such as Numi’s Emperor’s makes a great pairing with a French cheese plate and can also act as a digestif after a heavy meal.
Health – The fermentation process of Puerh allows beneficial nutrients to flourish. This special process enhances the antioxidant ability found in all tea including polyphenols (catechins), Vitamins B, C, E, P, and K, while increasing statin and GABA levels, making Puerh a highly effective healing beverage. Studies on Puerh show elevated levels of antioxidants, statins and other beneficial nutrients that:
• Reduce the risk of heart disease and stroke by lowering triglycerides
• Aid in cancer prevention through its high antioxidative capacity.
• Aid in digestion and rejuvenate life energy known as ‘QI’ as purported in Chinese culture
Numi will launch 4 flavors of Puerh in both tea boxes as well as loose tea.
Emperor’s Puerh – Organic Black Puerh tea: malty, rich & bold
Chocolate Puerh – Organic Black Puerh tea: velvety rich & vanilla
Magnolia Puerh – Organic Green Puerh tea blend: deep floral earthiness
Mint Puerh – Organic Green Puerh tea blend: pungent, smooth & sweet
