Traditional incense making techniques (medicinal incense making techniques)
The ancient method of making medicinal incense belongs to the traditional production process, and every detail is a traditional handmade one. In the base for teaching medicinal incense making skills, a representative project of intangible cultural heritage in Hohhot, the air is filled with smoke and the fragrance of medicinal herbs is everywhere, which has a unique charm. The various Chinese medicinal incense mud materials placed in containers are kneaded, molded, pressed, and oiled by the incense artist, giving off a mysterious and distant fragrance. The production of medicinal incense with different effects is demonstrated by the incense artist, which is pleasing to the eye and refreshing to the nose. The medicinal incense making skills have a history of more than 200 years. According to the historical records of the Alxa South Temple in Inner Mongolia, it originated from the ancient medicinal incense of Tibetan temples for more than 1,300 years. The history of its introduction to the Mongolian grassland can be verified to 1785. The production skills and incense recipe of this "secret treasure ancient incense" were brought into the Tengger Desert by a Tibetan Buddhist monk and "settled down" on the grassland. As time went by, local inheritors used this craft recipe as a basis, combined with local sacrificial customs, and integrated Han, Mongolian, Tibetan and Manchu cultures. They not only gradually promoted this thousand-year-old Tibetan incense, but also passed it down from generation to generation in Inner Mongolia.
