Tortoise-patterned Colored Stone

　　Tortoise-patterned Colored Stone--- 　　In the area around Tianzi Mountain, there is a type of stone with patterns resembling tortoise shells, locally called "tortoise rock." Artisans here use it as raw material for hand-carving and engraving into handicrafts such as stone tortoises, stone oxen, stone horses, stone dragons, stone incense burners, and stone inkstones. Their lifelike forms, exquisite artistry, and vivid details are deeply loved by tourists. These products are now sold not only in the local region but also exported to Japan, Taiwan, Hong Kong, and countries in Southeast Asia.
