Ilu Carp
With a long history and worldwide fame, these fish are born in the wild. The larger ones can grow over 1 meter in length and weigh dozens of pounds. They are a delicious delicacy that is both medicinal and edible. According to the "Continued Comprehensive Mirror to Aid in Government," in the fourth year of the Jingde era of the Song Dynasty (1007 AD), Emperor Zhenzong presented Ilu carp when he visited Gong to pay homage to the Song imperial tombs.
