Traditional culture is no longer a static "historical specimen", but a tangible carrier in daily life. The Palace Museum transformed the 600-year-old east pearl court beads of the Forbidden City into silver chain accessories. Scanning the AR bookmarks of Suzhou Museum allows visitors to see the "warp-through and weft-breaking" technique of kesi (silk tapestry weaving) craftsmen. The National Museum of China also exhibited the 2026 Year of the Horse "a Dark Horse" series of cultural and creative products for the first time, endowing cultural inheritance with warmth.

The Market and Amusement Park Sections brought cultural and creative products into daily life. In the "Jun Dao Suzhou (You Arrive in Suzhou)" Market, lantern riddles, music, and the fragrance of osmanthus intertwined. The panda cultural and creative products from Chimelong Resort and the "Changbao" dolls from China Dinosaurs Park attracted visitors to line up for interactions. Local amusement parks in Suzhou even integrated garden carvings and traditional patterns into their facilities, allowing culture to blend naturally into joy.

This grand event has long gone beyond being a mere "exhibition". Exhibitors from over 40 countries brought global creativity. The cat-shaped cultural and creative products from The British Museum stood side by side with the court bead chains from The Palace Museum, and patterns from Suzhou gardens were included in notebooks by overseas merchants. John Howkins, the father of the world's creative economy, commented: "The Suzhou Cultural and Creative Industry Expo allows the world to see the historical depth and contemporary vitality of Chinese culture, and this is precisely the proof of cultural confidence."
