Sports in ancient China, I think, has a strong competitive side, and there are also some games including health and intelligence, so I think ancient Chinese sports are a combination of dynamic and static, and cultivate people who have both civil and military skills.
Through this exhibition, in fact, the public can understand that China's sports culture is very rich and colorful. It is as splendid, long and brilliant as China's thousands of years of civilization history.
[Explanation] Hao Qin, director of the Museum of Chengdu Institute of Physical Education, said that many ancient Chinese traditional sports have been lost due to the influence of modern competitive sports. The combination of documents and cultural relics to "revive" ancient Chinese traditional sports can not only draw on the valuable wisdom of the ancients And experience, but also enhance the people's national cultural self-confidence.
[Concurrent] Hao Qin, Director of the Museum of Chengdu Institute of Physical Education
We combine documents and cultural relics, or combine physical objects, from the images of cultural relics or the cultural relics themselves, to restore how ancient sports were done.
What we need to do now is to make these sports that have disappeared, or our own traditional sports that are relatively unfamiliar to people now, so that everyone can gradually accept and become familiar with them through our publicity, exhibition and display. our own culture.
