On the afternoon of November 1, 2023,international students, teachers and volunteers from Huzhou University , jointly went to Huzhou Secondary Health School to carry out an activity on the theme of Integration of Research and Learning, Enjoying Traditional Chinese Medicine.
On the way to the destination, the teacher roughly introduced the characteristics of traditional Chinese medicine and the contents of this activity to the students, allowing them to have a rough understanding of this activity.
After arriving at the destination, the teachers and students went to the conference room to hold a licensing ceremony. After that，the students appreciated the charm of the medical school and the importance of medicine in the country through a video.
Later, the students changed their clothes and followed the teacher to learn the Chinese classic Qigong exercise 'Eight Section Brocade' and successfully understand its important movements and feel the key of Qigong. After completing a full ‘Eight Section Brocade', they summarized and took a photo as a souvenir.
Then, the students were divided into two groups to experience traditional Chinese therapies such as cupping and scraping in the teaching building and to visit the Chinese medicine collection. During the therapy，many students were eager to have a try and after experiencing it, they felt refreshed and couldn’t help themselves speaking highly of Chinese medicine culture.
After that, doctors from Changxing hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine led students to taste Chinese herbal tea and visit the specimens of Chinese herbal medicine recorded in ancient books, introducing their benefits, and making them feel the extensive and profound culture of traditional Chinese medicine culture. Finally, we boarded the return bus with gifts given by the nursing school in happy laughter as well as cheerful voices, ending the afternoon’s activities.
This event not only spreads traditional Chinese culture, showing the charm of traditional Chinese medicine, but also does good for helping the traditional Chinese medicine walk towards the world, letting more people can experience its fascination.
