It is said that spring is the most beautiful season in the city of Hangzhou. When the cherry blossoms are in full bloom, you will be amazed by the cherry blossom avenue on the west side of the library when you walk into the ZIME campus.A row of pale pink Yoshino cherry blossoms grew from the newly planted saplings in 2002 into towering trees, with luxuriant branches, and clusters of flowers flooded the branches after the spring thunder.

In such a beautiful campus, when the fall was colorful, we followed the flower dance through thousands of years, met Chinese traditional culture, and collided with modern civilization.Yes, the Chinese Traditional Culture Tour-Sakura Gathering, sponsored by the Youth League Committee and the Library and Information Center of the school, kicked off in a magnificent, grand, and graceful afternoon when the cherry blossoms were in full bloom. A total of 12 clubs participated in this year's Sakura Collection, and more than 20 activities were carried out. More than 500 students participated in the interactive scene.

Under the cherry tree, members of the Hurricane Literature Club and the South Bank Poetry Club organized the “Sakura Season · Three Quotes Love Poem Competition” and created many three quotes love poems, such as:

When the epidemic is gone, people are of the same heart

The sun recovers in the spring of March

Cherry blossoms will stay colorful

The members of the Reading Promotion Association took the theme of “Cherry Blossom and a Petal of the Book” as the theme and compiled many books about Chinese traditional culture in the library of the United School for students to borrow on-site.

In a “Flower Rhyme · Tea Rhyme” theme activity brought by Nanan’s Tea House students, the elegant and light aroma of tea and the calm tea ceremony performance of the tea artisans, amidst the flow of people, have the elegance of being quiet and feel the tea realm.The clear soup in the cup exudes a delicate fragrance, but it is faint and refreshing, making people seem to smell the breath of Chinese culture.

The members of the Nanan’s Painting and Calligraphy Club stared under the falling cherry blossoms, splashing ink to create things, creating flowers in their brushstrokes, and carrying forward the essence of national culture and interpret the magical charm of calligraphy.

The members of Yunshu Hanfu Club and Yi Er Opera Club are wearing Hanfu. Some hand-painted small lanterns under the cherry blossom, some guessing lantern riddles, some playing the game of throwing pots, and some stopping under the cherry trees with cherry blossoms. Taking a group photo, they seem to be travelers in time and space, adding more of the beauty of traditional Chinese culture to this cherry blossom gathering.

During the activity, Shen Yihao, a "Master" who is good at weaving the She ethnic group, also participated in the activity. He performed a ribbon show for the students under the cherry trees. The Commonwealth Agency and Yinyuan Dubbing Agency also carried out impromptu activities on the spot.

In addition, the Association of Mechanical Design and Innovation and the Association of Intelligent Robots also displayed the association's exquisite work products. This is a collision between Chinese excellent traditional culture and modern civilization, which fully reflects the “integration of humanities and technology.”

At the scene, the Symphony Orchestra of the University Student Art Troupe and the instructor from the Zhejiang Symphony Orchestra performed wonderful repertoires. The melodious music penetrated the cherry blossom forest, which attracted many students to stop and appreciate.

This Sakura Gathering event is the first theme activity of our school’s 2021 Chinese Excellent Traditional Culture Tour Activity. On the spring day when the cherry blossoms are in full bloom, we will use this innovative expression form of Gathering to present China’s excellence in a form that students love to hear, and to promote and pass on the traditional culture. Through immersive club experience activities, we will vigorously promote the excellent Chinese traditional culture, effectively attract and infect the students, and let the students be influenced by the excellent Chinese traditional culture in a subtle way. This sense of participation, identity, and acquisition creates a good social atmosphere that is conducive to the inheritance and promotion of the excellent Chinese traditional culture.
