Wanyao is a 600-year-old ancient village in southern Zhejiang, known for its porcelain.
Address: Wanyao Village, Qiaodun Town, Cangnan County, Wenzhou City
Transportation: Self-driving is recommended

Wanyao Ancient Village is located by the mountains and rivers. The village is sparsely populated, with black-tiled stone roads, and is very primitive, like a paradise. The village is home to ancient dragon kilns, ancient workshops, ancient opera stages, and ancient dwellings.

The village has an ancient opera stage, an octagonal wooden building with flying eaves and corners, which is very eye-catching. If you are lucky, you can enjoy the performance on the stage.

The San Zhe Waterfall, as the name suggests, is divided into three layers. Although some of the planks here are blocked, you can still enjoy the spectacular waterfall.

Wanyao Village is famous for its bowls. The ancient dragon kilns in the village witness the original style of porcelain making, and the ancient firing techniques are still preserved. However, compared to the hustle and bustle of Jingdezhen, it is much quieter here.
