"I am extremely excited as this is the first time that I meet so many people from other ethnic groups," said Guli, who excels at dancing and playing clarinet.
"But I'm also a little nervous not only because I'm the youngest ethnic ambassador but also because the other ambassadors are also very good. I will try to present the best of myself."
For both participants and spectators, the ethnic games are more like a multi-ethnic carnival and a demonstration of national unity of China.
The gala started with the opening ceremony at Guangzhou Olympic Stadium on Saturday evening, when members of the country's ethnic groups entertained the spectators with their own unique dance numbers and games in splendid traditional costumes.
Qiang Dan, a member of the Tibetan delegation, said he was much impressed with the opening ceremony.
"The opening ceremony was full of creative ideas," he said. "It somehow reflects the economic power of Guangdong province. I really wish today's Guangdong is tomorrow's Tibet."
His remarks were echoed by Xinjiang's Tohu Amuti, who is attending his second ethnic games.
"I was thrilled at the splendid shows by other ethnic groups," said Amuti."The games provide a platform for different ethnic groups to know and learn from each other. I hope we could strengthen ties through the games and help make our hometowns better places."
