Located in Chenlu Town, 15 kilometers southeast of Tongchuan City, it is named after its 'Ceramic Kiln Exhibition Hall' and is known as the 'Ancient Porcelain Town of the East.' It is the direct successor of the famous Northern Song Dynasty kiln, Yaozhou Kiln, and is the largest and most extensive ancient ceramic kiln in China and even the world. To avoid wasting the 'scraps' of ceramics made, the hardworking and intelligent people used the leftover cans to build walls and pave tiles. These have now become layered, honeycomb-like residences, attracting numerous experts, scholars, cultural enthusiasts, and a large number of domestic and foreign tourists for investigation.
Located in the Fudi Forest Scenic Area, 18 kilometers east of Yijun County, Tongchuan, 30 kilometers from the Mausoleum of the Yellow Emperor, and 150 kilometers from Xi'an, it is a tourist attraction that integrates water entertainment, agricultural sightseeing, and summer vacation. Historically known as the Lake of Yijun, it was gradually forgotten over time but has been redeveloped in recent years. Since 446 AD, the Northern Wei grottoes on the mountainside of Fudi Lake have been established. It is said that during the Northern Wei period, Yijun County was one of the most prosperous areas for Buddhism, and many grottoes were excavated by Buddhist devotees. Although most of these grottoes have been destroyed, some exquisite stone carvings still remain.
