The second China-Nepal Youth Cultural Exchange Camp, hosted by Yinghua Academy of Tianjin, concluded after a week of cultural exchange and study activities, bringing together 53 teachers and students from Nepal and their Chinese peers.

Arriving in China on Oct 27, the Nepalese delegation took part in Chinese language lessons, traditional cultural activities, and visits to historical landmarks, local communities, and modern enterprises, gaining firsthand insight into Chinese society and culture.

A highlight of the program was the homestay experience, where Nepalese students joined their Chinese host families in making dumplings, writing traditional Chinese blessings, playing Go, and trying on hanfu. They also experienced Tianjin's intangible cultural heritage and enjoyed opportunities to connect with local families.

During the school's international culture festival, students from more than 10 countries and regions shared their traditions and stories, turning the campus into a vibrant platform for intercultural dialogue.

The group also visited Beijing's Miaoying Temple White Pagoda, designed by Nepalese artist Arniko more than 700 years ago, exploring the long history of cultural exchanges between the two countries.

Building on the first exchange in 2025, the program aims to deepen mutual understanding and strengthen China-Nepal friendship among younger generations through education and people-to-people exchanges.
