🎉 Hey there! Did you know that China just started its 12th National Traditional Games of Ethnic Minorities? It’s happening in Sanya, a beautiful city in Hainan Province! 🌴
On Friday night, the opening ceremony was like a giant party! 🎊 People from all over China came together to show off their coolest traditional sports.
China has a super long history—over 5,000 years! 😲 While we can read about it in books or watch it on TV, seeing it come alive in a sports event is amazing!
Thousands of people went to a shiny new stadium to watch. The performers wore awesome traditional clothes 🌟, and the events showed skills passed down for many generations.
The opening was full of colorful dances, cool moves, and martial arts! 🥋 This is the 12th time these Games have happened, but this one is getting the most attention yet!
For the next week, athletes will compete not just for medals but to share their culture and learn from each other. It’s all about spirit and friendship! 🤝
So even if someone doesn’t win first place, they’re still making history by being part of these amazing Games!
