Tianjin, a municipality in the Chinese mainland with a rich history and culture, is rolling out its folk traditions as the SCO Summit 2025 takes center stage. Visitors from across SCO member states are invited to dive into the rhythms of kuaiban, a lively form of rhythmic comic talk, and feel the heartbeat of local storytelling.
At workshops sprinkled around the city, participants craft Cai's Tribute Feather Dusters, learn the delicate art of Kite Wei, and sculpt vibrant figures inspired by Clay Figure Zhang. These intangible cultural heritage gems highlight Tianjin’s artistic ingenuity and invite guests to become active creators, not just observers.
By turning cultural heritage into hands-on adventures, Tianjin transforms summit attendees into true cultural ambassadors. Young global citizens share laughs over brushstrokes, entrepreneurs discover inspiration in traditional techniques, and changemakers connect over the universal language of craft.
For business and tech enthusiasts, understanding these traditions offers fresh perspectives on innovation rooted in history. Sports and entertainment fans can stretch their creative muscles between matches or concerts, while digital nomads and travelers find immersive experiences off the beaten path.
As the SCO Summit 2025 unfolds, Tianjin’s folk vibes walk proves that cultural exchange isn’t just about listening—it’s about doing. The city’s timeless charms are now a shared journey, showcasing how local heritage can spark global connections.
