ELTE Confucius Institute was present at the Open Day of the University again this year

2023. October 13.

The ELTE FEST event at Eötvös Loránd University was very busy on Friday 13 October. The mission of the event is to give high school students about to apply for university admission a better understanding of the faculty's courses and at the same time to get an impression of the active student life on the liberal arts campus.

More than five hundred students attended the 11th ELTE FESZT Open Day, which was also hosted by the ELTE Confucius Institute. Chinese teachers from our institute welcomed the prospective students with calligraphy and a traditional tea ceremony.

During the authentic Chinese ceremony, the young people were not only introduced to the traditional tools, but also shown how to use them step by step. And at the end of the tea ceremony, everyone could taste the Chinese tea from overseas.

Besides tea, calligraphy attracted most people to our stand. Our teacher was happy to write down the names of curious students in Chinese characters, which everyone could then take home as a souvenir. Those more interested in Chinese characters could also try their hand at brush and ink drawing. A teacher from ELTE's Confucius Institute readily explained to the enthusiastic audience the correct way to hold a brush and the proper technique for writing the strokes that make up Chinese characters.

ELTE FEST proved to be an excellent opportunity for young people to get to know Chinese culture better. It is hoped that many of them will be inspired to learn Chinese as well.
