Sites of Dehua Kilns (Weilin-Neiban Kilns and Qudougong Kiln)
德化窑址（尾林-内坂窑址、屈斗宫窑址）
These are outstanding examples of Song-Yuan Quanzhou’s hinterland kilns that produced porcelain wares for export. Their rise benefited from the flourishing maritime trade in Quanzhou during that period. Over the course of their growth, Dehua Kilns developed the techniques of firing unique white-glazed porcelain products. These sites demonstrate Song-Yuan Quanzhou’s remarkable capacity for production and overseas trade and embody the innovation and development of Quanzhou’s local porcelain production industry driven by maritime trade.
