Discover the Ancient Art of Jia Ma with a Local Expert in Shaxi

€5.00

Step into the world of Jia Ma (甲马) — a centuries-old folk art that originated in Yunnan’s Bai culture. Once used as spiritual offerings and symbols of protection, Jia Ma woodblock prints carry prayers for good fortune, peace, and happiness. Today, they stand as a bridge between art, tradition, and spirituality.

In this immersive workshop, you’ll learn the cultural meaning behind Jia Ma and create your very own piece under the guidance of a local expert. Guided through each step — from understanding traditional patterns to creating and printing your own design. It’s a beautiful way to connect with Yunnan’s heritage — and bring home a personal charm of good luck and blessing.

Please note: The listed price is a non-refundable reservation fee. The remaining 120 RMB can be paid directly to your guide during the experience.

Our experience usually starts at 10:30 AM local time, but if it’s just your group, we can be flexible and start at a time that works best for you!
