Yang Jizhou (1522-1620) from Quzhou, Zhejiang province, was a master of acupuncture skills. His crowning work “Acupuncture Introduction” is regarded as the most influential and popular book on acupuncture. Built upon his theory and practice of acupuncture, the magic therapy has become an intangible culture heritage. #acupuncture #yangjizhou #Quzhou #ceremony #culturalheritage #intangiblecultureheritage #zhejiang #china | China.org.cn

Acupuncture, a 2010 UNESCO heritage gem, is a pointed testament to millennia of Chinese medical wisdom. Dr. Yang Faming has made it his mission to needle his way into history by teaching this ancient art and pinpointing pathways to healing for his patients. #CulturalHeritage | China Xinhua News
