Jianchuan Woodcarving Craft

Yunnan Dali Jianchuan, known as the 'Hometown of Carpenters', boasts a woodcarving craft technique that originated in the 10th century AD. The Bai people, after absorbing the culture and production techniques of the Han and other ethnic groups, gradually developed a unique and exquisite skill. The woodcarvings are finely crafted, using carefully selected materials, and embody the essence of Ming and Qing dynasty woodcarving styles. They are beautifully shaped, elegant and chic, hard yet flexible, resistant to corrosion and deformation, and represent the excellent national woodcarving art. Most of them are in relief. 👍Highly recommended: 1. Exquisite woodcarving craftsmanship with a long history. 2. Coexistence of tradition and modernity, with diverse development. 3. An important town on the Southern Silk Road. 4. Small population, pleasant climate, suitable for leisure. 5. Low cost of living. 6. Less than 1 hour's drive from Shaxi Ancient Town. 7. Rich cultural connotations in the Shibaoshan Grottoes art.
