Intangible Cultural Heritage Bead Lamps | Wenzhou, you're confused if you don't promote this place!!

| Wenzhou, you're confused if you don't promote this place!! The craftsmanship of our ancestors is truly stunning! Bead lamps are exquisite art treasures meticulously crafted by folk artisans. The bead lamp is hexahedral, over 4 meters tall, with a circumference of more than 12.5 meters, and weighs over a thousand kilograms. The lamp is divided into three layers, with six main lamps on each layer, all of different forms, accompanied by flower lattice barriers, Liu Hai Jin Qian pattern beads, streamers, etc., totaling more than four hundred pieces, all made by hand from colorful Ji beads (said to come from the South Seas) strung together. Bead lamps are generally hung before and after the Lantern Festival each year for people to admire. I am utterly enchanted by the charm of this intangible cultural heritage.
