Chinese craftsman Hu Zongliang makes joss paper made of bamboo fibre in traditional way at his workshop in Xiangzhigou village, Wudang district, Guiyang city, southwest China's Guizhou province, 21 May 2018. Chinese craftsman Hu Zongliang made paper in traditional way in Xiangzhigou village, Wudang district, Guiyang city, southwest China's Guizhou province. The paper was divided into joss paper and tough paper made from bast fibre of the paper mulberry. The joss paper re sheets of paper and/or paper-crafts made into burnt offerings common in Chinese ancestral worship such as the veneration of the deceased family members and relatives on holidays and special occasions. And the tough paper made from bast fibre of the paper mulberry was used to write, which is more expensive than joss paper. Hu had to give up making tough paper and focus on making joss paper due to the sharply fall of the need of the tough paper.
