History is being made as the World Games torch relay kicks off for the first time ever—and it’s starting with a fiery bang in Chengdu! 🏃♂️🔥 On July 26, the iconic flame will be lit at the Sanxingdui Museum, a treasure trove of ancient Chinese artifacts, before 120 torchbearers carry it across the city’s vibrant streets.
Why should you care? Imagine the Avengers assembling, but instead of superheroes, it’s a fusion of 3,000-year-old bronze masks 🎭 and the electric energy of global sports. CGTN’s livestream will take you behind the scenes of the ignition ceremony, featuring interviews with torchbearers and a deep dive into how Chengdu is bridging ancient culture with modern athletic passion. Think of it as the Olympics’ cooler cousin—with more dragons. 🐉
Whether you’re a history buff, sports fanatic, or just here for the vibes, this is your front-row ticket to a once-in-a-lifetime moment. Grab your popcorn (or baozi 🥟) and tune in—it’s about to get lit!
