As a language phenomenon and cognitive mechanism, metaphor is rooted in culture and is a part of culture, reflecting the content of culture. Through the cultural nature of metaphors, people can see the commonality and particularity of cultures in different countries. This article starts with the relationship between metaphor and culture, analyzes the current status of culture teaching, and puts forward some suggestions to strengthen the application of metaphor in culture teaching.
