"Ken Camp" has been going on for twelve years, and it is held in a forest lake every August.
Participants in the summer camp can learn and entertain from the activities, which has certain educational significance. Different kinds of summer camps offer different kinds of activities, for example, some provide outdoor outward bound training to train physical fitness and team spirit, while others provide language, art and music training. Most summer camps are sponsored by educational institutions, but now more and more private units hold camp activities. In the past, camping activities were only open to students in specific schools or regions. In recent years, camping activities are open to children from different backgrounds and regions. There are also camp courses specially designed for foreign students interested in Chinese and China culture.
