At the ongoing World Games in Chengdu, the experience goes far beyond the competition floor. In the Athletes' Village, interactive zones invite athletes from around the world to immerse themselves in the beauty of Chinese culture. Participants can choose a Chinese name, learn simple Chinese phrases, try their hand at calligraphy, and paint giant pandas. The journey continues with opportunities to experience traditional Chinese medicine practices, take part in hands-on activities like paper cutting and bamboo weaving, and try on traditional Hanfu, offering a rich cultural discovery alongside the Games.
