Jianchuan County has a long history in woodcarving. The carving skills gradually developed from one-layer relief to even seven-layer hollowing relief, are now applied to making architecture parts, wooden furniture, wall paintings and tourism souvenirs. In 2011, Jianchuan woodcarving was listed as one of China's national-level intangible cultural heritages.
