Jianchuan wood carving: A woodcarving craft technique to turn wood into classic designs

Jianchuan, located in Dali, Yunnan Province, is known as the “hometown of wood carving.” Since ancient times, the carpenters in Jianchuan traveled across the country and became renowned for their skills. Beijing’s Forbidden City, Chengde’s summer resort, Kunming’s Jinma Biji Square, and other famous ancient buildings are the handiwork of Jianchuan carpenters and an exquisite presentation of Jianchuan wood carving.
