13. Athletic culture in ancient China showcases more than 230 sets of exhibits selected from the collections of the Tianjin Museum and 10 other Chinese museums. The seven-part exhibition offers netizens a view of how various sports have developed over millennia in China.

Highlighted cultural relics include a group of Qin Dynasty clay figurines of soldiers doing physical exercise, traditional Chinese equipment for archery, martial arts, polo, wrestling, equestrian and rowing. But the most eye-catching pieces are a jade tablet inscribed with text about breathing and meditation exercise, and a Tang Dynasty silver flask inscribed with images of a horse carrying a cup in the mouth.
