In the park, you can see many uniquely shaped stones, which are actually made of imitation stones. Although nature can create many exquisite stones, natural resources are limited. In order to meet people's demand for strange stones, imitation stones were born. Imitation stone is a replica of stone, and from the surface, it appears to be the stone of our natural world. It is a new type of composite material that can replace natural stone. What we usually refer to as imitation sandstone, sandblasted stone, and structural stone are actually imitation stones. Imitation stones have a larger connotation, and their names are relatively reasonable, appropriate, and standardized, such as bluestone antique railings and bluestone fences< br />
