Tea in China plays a big role in the country's culture and history. According to Chinese legend, tea was invented by the Emperor Shen Nung in the third millennium BC. Throughout China's history with tea, it has been used in religious offerings, eaten as a vegetable, and, in the Han Dynasty, began boiling it in water.
