Chagan Lake in Songyuan City, Jilin Province has a fishing and hunting culture that has been passed down for thousands of years. People began to use fish skin to make various totems, pendants, ornaments and other daily necessities.
Because it is entirely handmade, fish skin painting is also known as "fishing and huntingculture on your fingertips" Fish skin handicrafts have also opened up markets in Europe and Southeast Asia with the help of JILin Cultural Tourism Week.
