"The first time I played an escape room game in the mainland, I thought it was very interesting, the script here is similar to Taiwan, but the gameplay is different."

"The first time I went to the mainland, I saw my aunts and uncles dancing in the square, I was so happy, and I wanted to participate."

"For the first time, I saw many new energy vehicles with green license plates on the streets of the mainland, and I thought it was very fresh."

"It was the first time I ate the white soup and fine noodles of Suzhou's time-honored brand, the noodles were delicate and topping, and the sour plum soup and mung bean cake were delicious."

In the past few days, following the cross-strait youth internship, employment and entrepreneurship seminar and the itinerary of the 4th Cross-Strait Youth Culture Month, many Taiwanese youths have experienced Jiangnan life in Suzhou and gained a lot of their own "first" and "favorite" lists. Among them, many are "post-00" Taiwan teenagers who are visiting the mainland for the first time. "It's better to see than to hear" has become the experience of many people.

On the 21st, Taiwan young people visited Kunshan Metaverse Industrial Park, Huaqiao Dream World Cross-Strait Digital Entertainment Industrial Park (Genglian Village) and other places. In Zhouzhuang Ancient Town, the young people of Taiwan who participated in the activity each held a fish lantern in their hands, followed the changing colors of the fish lanterns and the clues of ancient and modern dreams, and immersed themselves in the multi-dimensional space drama "Only This Zhouzhuang". On the 23rd, at the booth of the 2024 Jiangsu Province Special Promotion Conference to Support Taiwan Youth Learning, Employment and Entrepreneurship, many Taiwan young people downloaded the mainland's social software to share what they saw and heard, interacted with the "Monkey King", experienced the production of intangible cultural heritage lacquer fans, collected stamps to "punch in", handled mainland mobile phone numbers, and consulted the enrollment of mainland universities.

Like travel photography, but also like to chase mainland dramas, Taiwan sophomore Ye Chenwei took a DSLR camera to walk around the Canglang Pavilion and Keyuan in Suzhou. "I've been looking forward to going to the mainland to see, but I didn't expect to be in the classical gardens of Suzhou." Visiting the water town in the south of the Yangtze River, Ye Chenwei saw the scenes in the film and television dramas, and captured the landscape photos and portrait photos that he was satisfied with, "I like this garden city with small bridges and flowing water." ”

Zhang Guiquan, a guest from Taiwan who has participated in several cross-strait youth culture month activities, has shared his experience in the mainland with relatives and friends many times. This summer, Zhang Guiquan's son, who is in the first grade of high school, also participated in cultural month-related activities. "My son would ask me questions about the mainland from time to time. During this trip, I hope that young people in Taiwan will perceive the mainland's leading position in AI, new energy and other technological fields through on-site visits, and objectively perceive what the mainland is like.
