It is said that a woman named Nvwa was deeply attracted by the landscape of Sanshan Mountain and Shou River so that she left the color stones which was used to fill the hold of the sky to the mountain and river. Those color stones was later transformed to various stones by the nature, which is called Shoushan stone now. That’s the legend of “There are gems born in Min (Fujian Province)”.
