Tibetan ancestors residing along the river used wood to form the keel and yak hide to craft the hull. These watercraft, known as yak hide boats, lightly glided across the water, turning once arduous outings into streamlined and efficient ones, enabling people to cross rivers and venture into farther reaches of the world.

This film Quxu Cowhide Boat is narrated by Dhunten, a county-level intangible cultural heritage inheritor.
