BEIJING
北京
Combat + Football Capital
搏击与足球之都
The capital goes hard in two disciplines: combat sports and football. Wukesong Arena hosts everything from MMA to boxing galas to national team fixtures. The hutong gym scene is real, basement boxing clubs with genuine coaching pedigree dot the old city. And the football community around Chaoyang District is the country's most passionate.
首都在两个领域发力：搏击运动和足球。五棵松体育馆承办从MMA到拳击盛典再到国家队比赛的各类赛事。胡同健身场景是真实的，具有真正训练血统的地下拳击俱乐部点缀在老城区。朝阳区的足球社区是全国最热情的。

广州
Youth Hoops Hotbed
青年篮球热土
Guangzhou has quietly become the most important city for youth basketball development in China. The Guangdong Tigers are the CBA's most decorated franchise, and their impact on local hoop culture is immense. The outdoor courts in Tianhe are a proving ground, every Saturday is essentially an audition for scouts who show up unannounced. The food scene is the greatest in China. No debate.
广州已悄然成为中国青少年篮球发展最重要的城市。广东泰山是CBA最荣耀的球队，对当地篮球文化影响深远。天河的室外球场是一个试验场，每个周六实际上都是对不期而至的球探的试镜。美食场景是中国最出色的。没有争议。

CHENGDU
成都
Streetball + Food Culture
街球与美食文化
Chengdu is a city that takes its leisure seriously, and that includes ball. The streetball culture here has a distinctly Sichuan flavor: relaxed until it isn't, then suddenly very competitive. The Higher Brothers put this city on the international rap map; now Chengdu is positioning itself as the streetball capital of Western China. The food is the best in the country by almost any metric. And the pandas.
成都是一座认真对待休闲的城市，这包括打球。这里的街球文化有鲜明的四川味道：放松直到不再放松，然后突然变得非常有竞争性。海尔兄弟将这座城市放上了国际说唱版图；现在成都正将自己定位为中国西部街球之都。美食按几乎任何标准都是全国最好的。还有大熊猫。

Skate + Surf + Tech
滑板与冲浪与科技
China's youngest major city is also its most progressive sports scene. Shenzhen has claimed skateboarding, the new Olympic discipline, as its own, with world-class skate parks in Nanshan and Futian districts. Its proximity to the ocean means surf culture is real, especially in Dapeng. Add a tech-forward mindset and the youngest demographic of any major Chinese city, and you have a sports scene that's perpetually inventing the future.
中国最年轻的大城市也拥有最前卫的体育场景。深圳将滑板，新的奥运项目，据为己有，南山和福田区有世界级滑板公园。靠近海洋意味着冲浪文化是真实的，尤其是在大鹏。加上科技前沿思维和任何中国主要城市中最年轻的人口结构，你会拥有一个永远在发明未来的体育场景。
