Dumplings Dumplings are one of the Chinese people’s favorite traditional dishes.
According to an ancient Chinese legend, dumplings were first made by the medical saint-

dumpling wrappers out of dumpling flour; 2) prepare the dumpling stuffing; 3) make
dumplings and boil them. With thin and elastic dough skin, fresh and tender stuffing,
delicious taste, and unique shapes, dumplings are worth eating hundreds of times.
There’s an old saying that claims, “Nothing could be more delicious than dumplings”.

Acupuncture Acupuncture is an important part of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM).
In accordance with the “main and collateral channels” theory in TCM, the purpose of
acupuncture is to dredge the channel and regulate qi and blood, so as to keep the body’s
yin and yang balanced and achieve reconciliation between the internal organs. It
features in traditional Chinese medicine that
“internal diseases are to be treated with
external therapy”. The main therapy of acupuncture involves using needles to pierce
certain acupoints of the patient’s body, or adopting moxibustion to stimulate the patient’s
acupoints so as to stimulate the channels and relieve pain. With its unique advantages,
acupuncture has been handed down generation after generation and has now spread all
over the world. Nowadays, acupuncture, along with Chinese food, kung fu (otherwise
known as Chinese martial arts), and traditional Chinese medicine, has been
internationally hailed as one of the “four new national treasures.”
