Tea has a history of 5000 years. Legend has it that while Shen Nong was drinking boiled water, a few pieces of leaves from wild trees fell into the pot and immediately the boiled water gave out a pleasant smell. He took a few sips and found it refreshing. Therefore, tea was discovered.
From then on, tea began to prevail in China. Tea gardens spread all over the country, and tea merchants became rich. Expensive and elegant tea sets became a symbol of status.
Today, tea is not only a healthy drink, but also an integral part of Chinese culture. A growing number of international tourists are getting to know Chinese culture while drinking tea.
