Pu'er is a prefecture-level city in southern Yunnan Province, China. The urban administrative center of Pu'er is Simao District, which is also the former name of the prefecture-level city itself. A major downturn in the price of tea in 2007 caused severe economic distress in the area.[5] The price of Pu'er has since recovered and Pu'er tea, a type of dark tea, still contributes much to the income of the area.
