At the Chongqing forest products fair held in Chongqing's Wushan County
on Sept. 25th, paintings with ghost face, a type of folk artworks from
"town of ghost" Fengdu County, caught the eyes of many visitors. It was
learned that such art was cited as "wonder of Chinese folk art" by the
Ministry of Culture in 1994 and is the distillate of Fengdu's ghost
culture. Pictured, a type of paintings with ghost face featuring deep
