About

XIANG OF CHINA will give the public exceptional experieces of being soaked in the amazing aromas of various forms of Chinese incenses made of plants, flowers, resins from nature. Incenses burners, traditional or mordern, will be presented in their glamorious shapes and forms. More significantly, the public will have a chance to try and make their own incense products including an image of Chinese ancient characters in early oracle bones.

With the revival of XIANG OF CHINA, expecially among young peoples, its beauty will remerge to be seen, unprecendentedly.
