I find it very interesting how much Tea itself means for Chinese people. It is not only used as a drink, but also it is an important part of their lives. Tea is used by Chinese people as a medicine and as a regular drink. They have whole Tea Ceremonies that are different for every occasion. To explain how much tea means for Chinese people is easy by comparing it to coffee in America. For example when they want to show respect for older people or invite somebody somewhere to visit with them they offer to go for a cup of tea; here in America people always invite to go get coffee. This is another aspect that shows the difference and much healthier style of living of Chinese culture.
