On the morning of 3 August, the teachers and students of the ‘China in Children's Voices’ International Youth Cultural Exchange Summer Camp visited the Nantong Museum of Traditional Chinese Medicine Culture to experience the unique charm of traditional Chinese medicine.

The Nantong Museum of Traditional Chinese Medicine Culture was founded at the initiative of Zhu Liangchun, a master of traditional Chinese medicine, and officially opened to the public free of charge in 2016. Guided by the docent, Chinese and foreign teenagers walked orderly through the various exhibition halls.

At the hands-on workshop, participants carefully identified various Chinese medicinal herbs, gently filled the sachets with herbs, neatly closed the openings, and tied the knots securely, making their own personalized herbal sachets.

Teachers and students also tasted Chinese herbal tea together, learning about the concepts of traditional Chinese medicine in the light aroma of herbs and the sweet taste of tea.
