The Culture of Japanese Tea Ceremony

The Japanese tea ceremony, where tea is savored in a solemn atmosphere, is a representative traditional culture with a 700-year history deeply embedded in Japanese life. It originated in China in the late 12th century and developed uniquely in Japan. The 'tea ceremony' is said to be a sublimation of Japanese 'omotenashi' (hospitality), where the simple act of preparing a drink for guests is elevated to an art form.
