Dabujiang Patchwork Embroidery Museum in Yongxing County was successfully included in the list of rural museums in Hunan province for 2025, becoming the only rural-category museum from Chenzhou City to make the list.

This honor not only affirms the great achievements in the inheritance and revitalization of the Dabujiang patchwork embroidery , an intangible cultural heritage item, but also adds a vivid footnote to the cultural revitalization efforts in rural areas of Chenzhou.

Dabujiang Patchwork Embroidery is a highly representative intangible cultural heritage project of Yongxing County, renowned for its unique “patching, pasting, and embroidering” techniques. It integrates scenes of folk life, folk tales, and auspicious symbolism into every stitch, embodying the profound historical memory and humanistic sentiments of the southern Hunan region.

The Dabujiang Patchwork Embroidery Museum provides a vital platform for the centralized display, research, and dynamic experience of this ancient craft. The museum not only houses a vast collection of traditional patchwork embroidery masterpieces but also recreates the working scenes of master artisans and sets up interactive experience zones.

In recent years, the local cultural tourism authority has promoted the construction of rural museums as an important lever to promote the quality and efficiency of public cultural services and help rural revitalization.

Through policy support, talent cultivation, cultural and tourism integration and other measures, more local cultural treasures have been promoted, benefiting the people.

Next, the county will further improve the exhibition system and service functions of the Dabujiang Patchwork Embroidery Museum, deeply explore the cultural connotation and contemporary value of patchwork embroidery, promote the deep integration of intangible cultural heritage skills with tourism, cultural creation, education and other industries, and create a new benchmark for the revitalization of rural culture in Chenzhou, allowing more people to experience the unique charm of folk art in southern Hunan.
