In China, people not only formed a special way of tea drinking, but also developed an art form called tea drinking. This kind of tea culture spreads to other countries, so tea export can be regarded as carrying forward the tradition, or as spreading the culture, and It has great importance. Britain began to drink tea in the seventeenth century， comparing with other European countries, the tea culture of Britain is the most famous and typical, and it has formed its own special tea culture, for example, the world's famous Afternoon Tea, however, what is different with China’s tea culture?

The paper aims to illustrate the different of tea-drinking culture between Britain and China from the four points, the manner of tea drinking, the spirit of tea ceremony, the culture of tea house, and the impact of tea drinking. At last, according to the comparison, the writer suggests two points to develop our own tea culture, establishing the national day of tea drinking and creating our own international tea brand.

The role of tea in the world history is fascinating.

Geological and botanical evidence suggests the tea plant originated in the dense forest of the present province Yunnan, China. Yunnan is the world’s center of the species of the camellia genus of which tea (Camellia family) is a member, and other places of China were also found tea plants, such as Guizhou and Sichuang.

The phenomenon observes the rule of biological evolution: from junior to senior, from simplicity to complexity, from lower resistance to higher resistance. Nowadays, some wildly big plants of tea can be found in these places, basing on incompletely statistics, there are ten provinces and one hundred and ninety-eight places finding these wild tea plants.
