There are also camp courses specially designed for foreign students interested in Chinese and China culture.

Summer camp originated in America. In the summer of 186 1, Ken, a teacher from Connecticut, led the children to go hiking, hiking, sailing, fishing and other outdoor activities for two weeks to balance their body and mind. "Ken Camp" gathers at the lake in the forest every August for twelve years.
The development of the summer camp is introduced as follows:
The earliest summer camp originated in the United States around 1885. Summer camps in China appeared after the founding of the People's Republic of China and experienced a long period of development. At the beginning of the team building of Chinese Young Pioneers, the first group of young pioneers went to the former Soviet Union to attend the Black Sea Summer Camp, which was the earliest summer camp in China. At that time, the summer camp was a public welfare activity funded by the state and could be attended for free.
Due to the limited economic conditions, only a few outstanding students can participate, which is a reward. 1992, at the suggestion of Japan, a Sino-Japanese summer camp for grassland exploration was held in Inner Mongolia. Since then, the organizers of domestic summer camps are no longer just schools, education committees and other education departments, and the number of students who can participate in summer camps has gradually increased.
