Abstract: Tea culture has a long history in China, and planting is the first step to establishing the quality of tea. The ancient Chinese people had their ideas about the terrain, climate, soil, and other conditions of tea cultivation, so the records of each region have big or small differences. This paper reviews the research on tea cultivation by some contemporary scholars and explains the tea environment and soil conditions through ancient tea books and some local Chronicles. However, China has a vast territory, abundant resources, diverse and complex terrain, and climate, so it is necessary to discuss it by region. In a word, It is concluded that soil and planting environment are very important for tea quality.
