Route Introduction


Yongchuan Holy Palanquin

 

   An ancient street house on Shennon Street harbors an old store“Yongchuan Da Jiao”that has been manufacturing religious artifacts for nearly 60 years now. Serving the gods, the store uses only the best solid wood. Maestro Wang, Yongchuan possesses excellent wood-crafting skills and is very precise about curves, degrees, ridgelines and adhesion. Even though the competition from imported low-priced artifacts is big, Maestro Wang insists on crafting only pieces that can shoulder history.
