The Culture of Datang Gongcha Courtyard

China, the hometown of tea, is the first country to discover tea and drink tea in the world, creating a unique and elegant tea drinking culture of the Chinese nation. Tea culture is an important part of traditional culture in China, which originated from Tea Classic written by Lu Yu in Cha Sheng in the middle Tang Dynasty.

The Book of Tea is the first monograph on tea science in the world. It is Lu Yu's comprehensive and detailed exposition on the history, origin, efficacy, cultivation, collection, frying and drinking of tea before the middle Tang Dynasty in China. It is the most complete monograph on tea science in ancient China. The publication of Tea Classic marks the formal formation of tea culture in China.

China is the hometown of tea, and the earliest tea tree in the world originated in Simao, China. Tea, as a "sacrifice" of China, first appeared in the sacrificial activities of the court. Secondly, it appears in the daily life of alchemists in the form of "eating". Later it appeared in people's lives in the form of "medicine". During the Sui and Tang Dynasties, tea, as a drink, entered the daily life of ordinary people. Now, tea has long been popular all over the world, occupying the first place in the world's three major beverages.

The development history of tea culture is a microcosm of the social development history of China. By understanding the history of tea culture, we can clearly understand the development history of our society. Therefore, we love the traditional tea culture of our motherland even more.
