About me

Hi, I’m A-Zhu. I love sharing the living culture of Sichuan and Chongqing — from Sichuan Opera face-changing and traditional masks to tea houses, old streets, folk crafts, and local artisan workshops. This is not a museum-style lecture. I’ll take you closer to the people, skills, and stories behind the heritage, so you can see, ask, try, and understand how these traditions are still part of daily life today.

Living Heritage of Sichuan & Chongqing

A private cultural walk with a local host

Step into the world of Sichuan and Chongqing’s intangible cultural heritage with a local host who brings the stories to life.

Together, we may visit a traditional opera space, meet local artisans, explore old neighborhoods, watch mask painting or face-changing related performances, experience tea house culture, or try a simple hands-on craft depending on your interests.

Along the way, A-Zhu will explain the meaning behind the colors, gestures, patterns, tools, and rituals — not in a textbook way, but through real stories and local context.
