The formation of Japanese tea ceremony culture can be traced back to the early 9th century, when China Tea entered Japan. Since then, tea has been widely spread and developed in Japan. In the Middle Ages, the upper class in Japan began to regard the tea ceremony as an art and a cultural form.

In the16th century, Mori Rikyū, a master of tea ceremony, developed the art and philosophy of tea ceremony and transformed it into a complex and highly ritualized discipline. Li Xiu emphasized the importance of tea ceremony and linked it with Zen and Bushido philosophy. He believes that through the tea ceremony, people can find peace and peace of mind in simplicity and tranquility. Li Xiu's influence promoted the development and popularization of tea ceremony culture.

In Edo period (17th century to19th century) and Meiji period (19th century), tea ceremony became a symbol related to politics, economy and culture. The popularity and development of tea ceremony has promoted the development of many related industries, including pottery making, construction, weaving and knife making.

In the 20th century, tea ceremony culture spread all over the world, and was widely appreciated and respected. Tea ceremony is not only regarded as an aesthetic, but also as a philosophy and lifestyle, emphasizing simplicity, inner peace and calm mind.
