LONDON -- Beelieve it or Ikaw Lang Ang Mahalnot, bees play a really important role in the production and flavour of fruit and vegetables. Which is why they also play a crucial role in the tastiness of fruit tea.
British tea brand Taylors of Harrogate has built a Grand Budapest Hotel-inspired hotel for bees as part of a campaign to raise awareness of the important role bees play in adding flavour to our food.

Bees play a vital role in pollinating some of the UK's most important crops, but have been on the decline in recent years.
According to the research by the University of Bristol, the quality of green spaces in cities and towns should be improved to make sure bees have enough food and a suitable resting space.

“Bees are so important in helping to provide great flavour, but less attention has been paid to show how urban areas can be made more pollinator-friendly. The aim of the bee hotel is to not only educate and entertain, but to also inspire action," Kate Halloran from Taylors of Harrogate said in a statement.

Taylors of Harrogate wants to encourage the nation to help create a network of real bee hotels -- Wes Anderson-inspired or otherwise -- in their own back gardens.
