Recently, a series of vibrant Chinese - traditional - culture activities were successfully held at the School of Finance and Economics, attracting a large number of international students to participate actively. These activities aimed to provide international students with a platform to experience the profoundness and charm of Chinese traditional culture, while also promoting cultural exchanges and integration.
The event kicked off with a fascinating Chinese calligraphy workshop. Under the guidance of professional calligraphy teachers, international students carefully held brushes and learned to write Chinese characters stroke by stroke. The elegant lines and profound meanings of Chinese characters deeply intrigued the students. They were amazed at how a simple brush and ink could create such beautiful and meaningful works. Some students even tried to write their own names in Chinese calligraphy, and the sense of achievement on their faces was evident.
Next came the traditional Chinese tea - ceremony activity. The students were introduced to the long - standing history and unique rituals of Chinese tea culture. They watched intently as the tea - art masters demonstrated the process of brewing tea, from warming the cups to pouring the tea with grace. Then, the international students had the opportunity to taste different types of Chinese tea, such as green tea, oolong tea, and Pu'er tea. They were not only impressed by the rich flavors of the teas but also by the tranquility and elegance of the tea - ceremony atmosphere.
The School of Finance and Economics said that it will continue to organize such cultural activities in the future, aiming to create a more diverse and inclusive campus cultural environment, and further promote cultural exchanges between Chinese and international students. These activities are not only a way for international students to experience Chinese culture but also a bridge for cultural communication between different countries, contributing to the building of a more harmonious and interconnected global community.
