In Inner Mongolia, why is wrestling called Bok?

This question is simple, because Mongolian wrestling is a blog in Mongolian, which means "strong, unbreakable, unbreakable and enduring".

So since I asked about blogs, I think it is necessary to promote blogs. Bok has a history of more than 2000 years, which originated in Han Dynasty and gained great popularity in Qing Dynasty.

Wrestling (the other two are horse racing and archery) is the first of the Mongolian "Three Men's Arts" and belongs to the most traditional Mongolian sports in China. No matter when offering sacrifices to Aobao or holding Nadam Convention, "Bok" is an inevitable wonderful project.

By chance, the dean once witnessed a blog movement at a winter Nadam conference in the grassland of Ujimuqin, the cradle of Mongolian blogs, and the shock was absolutely unforgettable.

Before the opening of the conference, the grasslands in Inner Mongolia were covered with white snow flowers. Many bloggers wear blog clothes. Because of the cold weather, the contestants had to wear sweaters or sweaters, while we wore thin warm clothes, sweaters and down jackets. You can imagine how low the outdoor temperature is. A contestant blushed with cold,

If you haven't done this, you don't know how difficult it is, because after rubbing your hands with snow, your hands blown by the wind seem to have been scratched by tens of thousands of knives. But there is no way, they need to heat themselves in this way.

Before the competition starts, bloggers will perform a special ceremony, that is, taking the eagle step, which is extremely cool. Then there's the duet.

The process of wrestling, sometimes very long, sometimes very short, just look at that moment, very thrilling. Generally speaking, the number of stripes on a blogger's clothes is the number of victories they have won, so most people will pay attention to players with more stripes.

After the game, some women and children will also participate, and some children are not weaker than adults when they fall.

In order to promote boxing, Dongwuzhumuqin Banner established a wrestling association in 1984, and designated June 10 every summer as "Boxing Festival". In 2003, the State Sports General Administration merged boxing with Chinese wrestling, which was formally included in the national wrestling championship.

If you have the opportunity to come to the grassland, you must watch a blog contest, which will surely feast your eyes.
