How we checked it
Verified · 2026-09-22
The national intangible heritage portal confirms Beijing silk flower as a 2008 state-level item. Tongzhou reporting confirms Yang Xiufen as a district-level inheritor running a silk flower workshop that exports orders. The previously assumed Tongzhou cultural centre public class could not be found in any public source; sessions appear to be organised events rather than a standing schedule.
