Wanyao Ancient Town

碗窑古镇

A century-old earthenware village in Boshang Town, Linxiang District. Stepped dragon kilns built into the hillside still fire colorful pottery, and visitors can try throwing clay on a wheel.

Wanyao Village is located in Boshang Town, Linxiang District. Since the Qing dynasty, potters from places such as Jingdezhen have settled here, and the stepped dragon kilns built into the hillside are still in use, firing earthenware and colorful multi-glazed pottery. The village preserves old residences, kiln sites and pottery workshops, where you can watch clay being thrown and glazed and try making pottery yourself. The village has recently been developed into Wanyao Ancient Town. Entry is free, while activities are charged separately. A visit takes about 2 hours, and the village is about 25 km from Lincang city.
