LuYu Quan is
located in the GuangJiao Temple in ShangRao City, JiangXi Province.
Now the temple is the ShangRao No. 1 Middle School. In the ZhenYuan
Era (785-786 AD) of Tang Dynasty, the Tea Saint LuYu lived in the
GuangJiao Temple. He built up a tea garden by the spring. It was
said that later on he called the spring the “No. 4 Spring”. Since
then the spring has been named as the LuYu Spring.
The LuYu
spring was well kept until 1960’s. The underground water was cut by
a local construction project. Now there is no water inside the
spring anymore.
