Carving blessings for the Year of the Horse #CGTN

Carving blessings for the Year of the Horse
As the countdown to the Chinese New Year continues, communities across China are busy with final preparations. But in an ancient town of Dali City, southwest China’s Yunnan Province, the Spring Festival is welcomed through a quieter, more profound ritual – a dialogue between chisel and wood. Follow CGTN to meet Zhang Renhua, a guardian of the Bai people’s ancient Jiama woodcut printing tradition. Witness how a block of rugged pear wood is patiently carved into a vessel of prayer, transforming raw material into a sacred medium for New Year’s blessings.
