In the main hall of Quanzhou's Kaiyuan Temple, a glance upward reveals exquisite woodcarvings of flying Apsaras, known as "Miaoyin birds." These ethereal figures are depicted holding Nanyin musical instruments such as the pipa and erxian. These intricate carvings not only provide structural support to the beams and frames but also possess remarkable artistic value, blending architectural functionality with cultural beauty.
