Tibetan art and crafts are recognized worldwide for their uniqueness and skillful creation. In Diqing Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, in southwest China's Yunnan province, local craftspeople use their skill to express their love for life, and to pass on their intangible cultural heritage from generation to generation. With the development of tourism, traditional handicrafts, such as the black pottery of Tangdui County, the wooden bowls of Shangqiaotou County, and delicately embroidered traditional Tibetan costumes have found a wider and appreciative audience.
