Shanghai is the first place for many foreign tourists to learn about China, and after landing from the Hongqiao hub, they come to the culturally rich Minhang district. Let's visit four representative places with reporters to explore the charm of intangible cultural heritage.

The Maqiao Hand Lion Dance

After years of precipitation, the Maqiao Hand Lion Dance exudes a unique charm. After the experience, Niladri Saha Saccha , a Bangladeshi student who studied here, said that in order to truly learn and show the vitality and spirit of the Maqiao Hand Lion Dance, it was necessary to devote oneself to it. Every movement needs to be neat, clean, and powerful, and paired with exciting drumming to fully unleash your inner passion and heroic spirit. The majestic lions performed together with the dashing dancers brought endless joy and festive power to the people.

Erhu Production Skills

Shanghai National Musical Instrument Factory No. 1 is a good place to solve erhu production skills. Erhu has developed from the Tang Dynasty to the present more than 1,000 years, and occupies an important position in solo performances, ethnic instrumental ensembles, and local operas. From material selection, cutting, production, skinning, carving, polishing to tuning, each process contains the painstaking efforts and wisdom of craftsmen.

Cao Rong, the inheritor of intangible cultural heritage erhu production skills, said that he was committed to promoting traditional Chinese music culture, continuously inheriting and promoting Chinese national instrumental music culture, and letting more people understand and love this national treasure.

Nvgong: Knitting, Knotting, and More

Nvgong, which is knitting, knotting, and more, is a fascinating expression of Minhang's intangible cultural heritage.

Jin Hua is the inheritor of Nvgong. She showed us how to weave the cheongsam pattern with homespun cloth, and introduced the history and inheritance of Nvgong. “We pronounce ‘hong’as ‘gong’ because it was made by women in ancient times.” she said.

An international student from East China Normal University, who experienced homespun weaving, said: “In Germany, we love weaving. I think they do have similarities, but the difference is that there are no cheongsam costumes in Germany. ”

Jin Hua said that she was glad to see that international friends were so interested in Nvgong, and that Nvgong is not only the crystallization of ancient women's wisdom, but also a bridge for communication and connection between people.

Shanghai-style Furniture

Shanghai-style furniture has both Chinese and Western characteristics. In Minhang there is a kind of lacquer technique. It began in the Tang Dynasty, word-of-mouth, interpreting the texture of wood while having the touch of jade.

Jiang Wen, the disseminator of Shanghai-style furniture lacquer technology, introduced the production process and characteristics of this skill to reporters. “We have a total of 37 to 52 process steps,” she explained. Using all-natural materials such as lacquer, grass, leaves, after polishing, dyeing, and lacquering, it takes 6 months to complete a set of furniture. Jiang Wen and her father, Jiang Zhongqing, who began to learn lacquer painting at the age of 17 and have been focusing on the study of this intangible cultural heritage for nearly 40 years. Her father focused on technology, while Jiang Wen devoted herself to the promotion of intangible cultural heritage. They passed on the cause of intangible cultural heritage together.
