The Hidden Garden from Nature, Cayhana, sits like a hidden treasure among the green hills of Cayeli. Located in the heart of Rize's tea culture, this place preserves the tradition of the teahouse, which was the center of commercial and social life in the Eastern Black Sea region. Teahouses, ever since the Ottoman period, have been not merely places where tea is drunk, but social spaces where news was shared, stories were told, and cultural memory was kept alive. The fact that the word 'Cayhana' in its name is written in Cyrillic script shows that Caucasian and Russian tea culture influenced this locality, an interesting detail that sheds light on Rize's past in the international tea trade. To get to know the local tea culture up close in a traditional teahouse setting among the year-round green hills, it is recommended to chat with local residents in the morning hours.
