Field Notes of the Yingxian Pagoda ‘Intern Doctors’

Produced from a Palace Museum–Tsinghua conservation programme, this book records archival research, tower inspection, 3D scanning, photogrammetry, timber structure and painted sculpture from the on-site perspective of ‘intern doctors’. It bridges professional practice and public reading.

Its value lies not only in conclusions but in showing how heritage investigation proceeds: documentary research, field comparison, then translating survey, scan and material observations into conservation judgements.
