On October 22, ICDS organized an experience event on an intangible cultural heritage, kite-making for the families of foreign military participants. Through immersive experiences, the families felt the unique charm and profound heritage of traditional Chinese culture, further enhancing their understanding of and identification with Chinese culture.

During the event, the instructor explained the historical origins, folk symbolism, and craftsmanship of kites, from the legend of the "wooden kite" to their popularity in the Tang and Song dynasties, from the meaning of auspicious patterns to the transmission of intangible cultural heritage skills, vividly presenting the Chinese wisdom carried by kites. The families painted on blank kite frames printed with traditional patterns such as "Magpie on the Plum Branch" (symbolizing joy), "Double Happiness and Longevity," and "Two Dragons Playing with a Pearl," deeply experiencing the joy and cultural value of traditional Chinese handicrafts through creation and exchange.
