Shadow puppetry is a traditional art that exists in many different regions of China and beyond, including Thailand and Cambodia. In China, many have heard of shadow puppetry, but few understand the core of the art since it takes many years of practice and experience. This art is not defined by one specific culture, but it is still unique since it combines history and science. Shadow puppetry originated from China around 2000 years ago, but it is disheartening that fewer people are showing a continued interest in the art. However, this should never be an excuse for giving up on inheriting the traditional art; shadow puppetry is a treasure not just for China but for the world. This book collects puppets from the southern region of Liaoning Province. Southern Liaoning includes, among others, Dalian, Yingkou, Anshan, and Dandong. The whole region is not very big, but it has many special customs, a history of inland migration, different battles, and even historical foreign diplomacy. Shadow puppetry is used to record history and life stories. Based on these materials, there are also some related myths that can be shown by shadow puppets. The reader of this book can find explanations and comments for puppets and understand how previous artisans designed puppets and why they designed so. There are details that may be ignored when observing a specific puppet, but actually they are crucial. Cultural heritage like shadow puppetry should never be limited by its origin and cultural background; it should be spread out so that more people can realize the real beauty of it. This book provides only a brief introduction, and its purpose is to spark some interest among readers. Art derives from real life. There is a Chinese quote describing shadow puppetry as "a piece of mouth may carry thousands of stories; a pair of hands may raise years of histories." It is fair to say that this art contains so many things waiting to be explored. This kind of treasure needs to be noticed by m
