The main content of the activity is to learn traditional Chinese culture (Chinese songs, paper-cutting, Chinese knots, calligraphy, Chinese martial arts, etc.). All courses are taught by excellent professional teachers. Some teachers have published relevant professional books and received high praise during their teaching tours in Southeast Asia.
