STORYLINE:

Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has been helping overseas patients address health problems through various approaches, such as acupuncture, cupping and herbal medicine.

Qihuang Traditional Chinese Medicine Center of Hungary was set up by northwest China's Gansu provincial health commission in 2016.

It has been operating with the help of consecutive teams of Chinese doctors sent to Hungary to provide medical assistance.

"After receiving treatment here, many patients felt better. Then they would introduce other patients to come here."

Gansu is a major TCM production base in China and has a long history of growing TCM herbs.

Since the Belt and Road Initiative was proposed in 2013, Gansu has signed cooperation contracts with 12 countries and built 16 TCM education, research and treatment facilities overseas.

A growing number of overseas students and practitioners have come to China to experience and learn TCM therapies.
