A Chinese character "Hui" unfolds a beautiful picture of landscape and humanity complementing each other.

An intangible cultural heritage (ICH) technique serves as a bond of cultural and spiritual communication between modern people and ancient people beyond time and space.

"Carving Art of Huizhou" Exhibition of Intangible Cultural Heritage Crafts opened in Anhui Art Museum on June 12 and will last until July 31. Over 10 kinds of craftsmanship, 31 ICH inheritors, and 53 excellent ICH works at the exhibition offer visitors a glimpse of the craft aesthetics deeply rooted in the blood of Huizhou people, leading visitors to appreciate the charm of Huizhou and listen to the cultural resonance that transcends time and space.

The profound cultural heritage adds color to the Greater Huangshan Region. It is known that Huangshan City has strengthened the protection and inheritance of ICH skills for one thing and promoted the creative transformation and innovative development of Huizhou’s excellent traditional culture for another. It has implemented key cultural industry projects such as Tunxi Old Street, Liyang-in Lane and ICH creative industry parks, embarking on an innovative path of “ICH +”. Huizhou ICH techniques burst with vitality in the interaction with the times and the integration with reality. (Zhang Lixiang)
