Cultural heritage

The Henan ICH Aesthetics Museum is a cultural venue dedicated to showcasing Henan's intangible cultural heritage. Henan is rich in such heritage, spanning traditional crafts, opera, folk custom and fine art. Taking an aesthetic view, the museum gathers these scattered skills and works under one roof, presenting the beauty of traditional crafts such as paper-cutting, embroidery, ceramics and carving, so that visitors can take in the colorful face of Central Plains heritage in a single place — a window onto Henan's folk skills and craftsmanship.

Visiting: Inside, visitors can pause before one heritage work after another — admiring the deftness of paper-cuts, the delicacy of embroidery and the craftsmanship of ceramics and carving — feeling the beauty of traditional skill up close and understanding the handwork and devotion distilled into each item of intangible heritage.
