Step into 2026's most innovative cultural crossover as China unveils its #CulturalPassport initiative – where the fantasy world of hit RPG Arknights collides with real-life martial arts heritage! 🥋✨
This year's program lets travelers literally walk through gaming landscapes, from Emei Mountain's misty peaks (perfect for your next Instagram story 📸) to Shaolin Temple's legendary training grounds. Local masters are reimagining Arknights battle sequences using authentic Wudang Tai Chi flows and Meishan's shadowy combat techniques.
"It's like unlocking a new character skin for Earth," says 24-year-old gamer Li Wei, practicing Baduanjin breathing exercises at Beijing's Temple of Heaven. The project bridges Gen Z's digital obsessions with China's 5,000-year-old physical arts – all while showcasing UNESCO-recognized sites through a fresh lens.
Pro tip for travelers: The Dragon Year Special Edition Passport (released last month) includes AR filters that transform your hike into a Shōnen anime training montage! 🐉💥
