Beyond the races, the Qiansu Market was bustling alongside the competition, offering a vibrant mix of local specialty foods, cultural creative product displays, and interactive experiences. The market allowed athletes and spectators to immerse themselves in the lively atmosphere and cultural charm of "Colorful Guizhou" and "Cool Guiyang" – while also unlocking the spending potential of sports tourism.

As a national pilot city for sports consumption and event-driven economy development, Guiyang has been deepening its integrated approach of "events + culture and tourism + consumption" in recent years, effectively converting the "traffic" of international competitions into tangible "growth" in urban consumption.

During this year's event, spectator numbers, peripheral spending, and culture and tourism synergies all saw significant increases, with the economic spillover effects of the tournament continuing to expand.
