The exhibition also features a space showcasing, introducing, and demonstrating Zeng weaving craft and the traditional attire of ethnic minority communities in A Luoi. Additionally, various handmade products, including wood carvings, ceramics, and basketry… are also showcased for viewers on this occasion.
