Hey there! Have you ever been to a big sports festival? Well, in Sanya, a beautiful city in southern China, something amazing just happened! 🏖️🏅
The 12th National Traditional Games of Ethnic Minorities just wrapped up on November 30, 2024. Imagine 6,960 athletes coming together from 35 different groups, all showing off their cool sports and traditions! 😮

At the closing ceremony, flags from all 35 groups waved proudly at the Sanya Sports Center. It was like a rainbow of cultures! 🌈
Chinese State Councilor Shen Yiqin officially closed the Games, and the big flame in the stadium was put out. But don’t worry, the spirit of the Games lives on! 🔥➡️❌
Gao Zhidan, who is in charge of sports in China, thanked everyone and said, “Athletes showed not just their skills, but also their hearts.” ❤️
Guess what? The next Games will be in Hunan Province in 2027! The Games flag was handed over to Li Jianzhong, Hunan’s vice governor. They even had a super cool eight-minute show to get everyone excited! 🎭🎉
