Xuan paper: a specialty of Jingxian County, Xuancheng City, Anhui Province, and a national geographical indication product. According to folklore, after the death of Cai Lun, a papermaker in the Eastern Han Dynasty, in the first year of Jianguang in the Eastern Han Dynasty, Kong Dan, his disciple, took papermaking as his profession in southern Anhui, and wanted to make the best paper and score the portrait of the master to show his memory. But it is hard to get what you want year after year. One day, Kong Dan happened to see an old rosewood tree lying by the stream. Due to years of sun and rain, the bark has rotted and turned white, revealing wisps of fine and clean fibers. Kong Dan used it to make paper. After repeated experiments, he finally made a wonderful piece of paper, which later became famous as Xuan paper. There is a kind of rice paper called "Four Feet Dan" to commemorate Kong Dan, which has been passed down to this day. Xuan paper is a unique handicraft in China, enjoying the reputation of "Millennium Life Paper" and "National Treasure".
