The History of Tea
Sometimes over 3000 years ago, somewhere in Southwestern China, a leaf from the Camellia sinensis plant accidentally found its way into a pot of boiling water.

That was the start of something which is today a globe-spanning multi-billion dollar industry that millions of people indulge in every day.Learn more about tea, its origins, and how it spread around the world on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.SponsorsNoom Noom is not just another diet or fitness app. It’s a comprehensive lifestyle program designed to empower you to make lasting changes and achieve your health goals.

In 1926 the route was established, following paths and trails which had been used for centuries, and quickly found itself as a central object of popular culture.
