Drum-making faces decline in machine age


Craftsman Li Xiaoqing makes drums in the traditional way in Hemian town, Luzhou, Sichuan province.

Li said it takes about one month to prepare the cow leather, usually requiring 80 steps.


He also said fewer cattle are now raised in rural areas due to the wide use of agricultural machines, which has further accelerated the decline of his traditional craft.
