Zhizha 紙紮 (or Taoist paper art, Hokkien Gor-Zhua 糊紙行業) is a type of traditional craft, mainly used as offerings in Taoist festive celebrations and funerals. It had become a widely accepted element in religious practice since Northern Song Dynasty. It now faces a gradual loss of craftsmanship due to related environmental concerns and weakened superstitions.
