Located in Qiaodun Town of Cangnan County in Zhe-jiang Province, Wanyao Village has a long history dating back to the reign of Emperor Hongwu (1368-1398) of the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644). It used to be the main base in southern Zhejiang for the production of everyday blue and white porcelain. Today, the village retains its ancient style with time-honored residences, kilns, temples and opera stages.
The porcelain made here enjoyed great fame in China in the past. However, the development of modern manufacturing techniques has pushed Wanyao Village to the sidelines.
