As China's famous woodcut New Year painting, Yangliuqing New Year Painting combines the traditions of Chinese paintings of the Song and Yuan Dynasties.
Yangliuqing woodblock prints are "half-printed and half-painted." First, artists carve a drawing line on a piece of board, then print it on a piece of paper with ink, followed by monochrome treatments and multi-color drawings repeated two or three times.
With a history of over 400 years, Tianjin Yangliuqing woodblock prints originated from the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644) and have developed into Tianjin's representative folk art genre.
There are many elegant hotels in Tianjin, but only one has the advantage of a patio right on the banks of the Haihe River. Xu Lin visits the St. Regis and experiences life on the right bank.
