Xiacaopu Iron Production Site of Qingyang Village in Anxi
安溪青阳下草埔冶铁遗址
This site bears invaluable testimony to the iron production industry in Song-Yuan Quanzhou, with Qingyang village being the location of one of the dedicated iron plants set up by the government in the Song Dynasty. Together with Quanzhou’s porcelain production bases, the site demonstrates Song-Yuan Quanzhou's remarkable production and overseas trade capacity and reflects the positive effect of maritime trade on inland Quanzhou’s economic development.
