• 53．Chinese shadow puppetry（皮影戲） is a form of traditional Chinese folk drama，probably one of the oldest arts using light and shadow.It is also a mix of many art forms，including painting，music，opera and story-telling.Shadow puppetry was added to UNESCO's Intangible Cultural Heritage（非物質(zhì)文化遺產(chǎn)） List in 2011.
      More than 2，000 years ago，Emperor Wu of Han was very sad about the death of his wife.One day，one of his men happened to see some children playing with toys.The shadows of the toys were lively on the floor.Then he had an idea—he made a puppet（人偶） of the emperor's wife.As night fell，he invited the emperor to watch a puppet show.This is believed to be the start of shadow puppetry.
      In the Tang Dynasty，shadow puppetry was played by many people in many places around the country.Then in the Yuan Dynasty，it was introduced into West Asian and European countries along the Silk Road.The art form became the most popular in the Qing Dynasty.
      In recent years，puppetry artists have explored ways to make this ancient art form as popular as it used to be and pass it on to the young，hoping more people can understand its importance and feel its beauty.They also get support from the Chinese government.Thanks to their hard work，Chinese shadow puppetry is becoming great again.
