I also studied the Chinese tea ceremony.
I have actually held a party with my friend who are learning Chinese tea ceremony and some Chinese people to enjoy both Japanese and Chinese tea ceremonies.
The similarities between the Japanese and Chinese tea ceremonies are their ingenuity in making tea tasty and beautiful.
The difference is that the Japanese tea ceremony is simple and quiet, while the Chinese tea ceremony is lively and people chat happily.
This is also connected to the difference between the Japanese and Chinese national character.
Whenever study Japanese tea ceremony, I will also study Chinese culture. I have respect for Chinese culture, people and history.
