We visited the museum, where exhibits of ancient paintings still present remarkable patterns and colors. Then in shops we went through the whole process, and were told the paper can easily recover from mis-folding just by putting it back to water and adequate drying afterwards.
The plant is called cyperus papyrus, or bulrush in English.

Great! I also bought some, but might only keep them as memory, instead of hanging on walls after framing.

@zhuhuifen That's a wonderful picture! The Egyptians had a flourishing civilization once, and developed the cuneiform writing, after the Sumerians.
