We all know that Wuyuan county of Jiangxi provinceis "the most beautiful countryside" in China,butdo you know that Wuyuan craft unbrellas are also popular with people? Craft umbrellas, which are made of bamboo, tissue paper, and tung oil (Chinese wood oil), have to go through more than 100 processes before hitting the market. Both beautiful and practical, the hand-made umbrellas have become a real catch both at home and abroad as summer tourism gains luster.
我们都知道江西省婺源县是中国“最美丽的乡村”,但是你是否知道婺源工艺伞也很受人们喜爱呢?工艺伞由竹片,薄纸,桐油制成,在上市前它要经历一百多道程序。这种手工制作的伞既漂亮又实用,随着夏日旅游业的兴盛,它已成为国内外的畅销货。
