Thirty items, including the Tibetan medicinal bathing method and Nagchu Gordro, have been included in the second batch of Nagchu municipal intangible cultural heritage, and 66 individuals, including Tsering Wangdui and Drugmokyab, have been added to the list of representative inheritors of municipal intangible cultural heritage.

The selected items range from traditional dances (4 items), traditional medicine (5 items), folklore (4 items), traditional arts and crafts (9 items), to traditional fine arts (2 items), folk literature (2 items), traditional music (2 items), folk art (1 item) and traditional opera (1 item).

The Tibetan medicinal bathing method was included in the UNESCO Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity in 2018. It is the traditional knowledge and practice of Chinese Tibetans in life, health and disease prevention. This heritage not only embodies the folk experience in disease prevention and treatment through bathing, but also represents an inheritance and development of the traditional Tibetan medicine theories in modern health practices.
