Hello, I'm Zhou Xiao, a travel blogger walking in the mountains of Fujian. Recently, I came to a remote fishing village in Ningde, Fujian, and found that the house with a bowl was well preserved, with a history of 300 years, which is rare in the world.

In Feiluan Town, Ningde, Fujian, there is a magical century-old village. The building materials in this village are not stones, wood, bricks, and even bowls are used to build houses. After a hundred years, it has become a beautiful local scenery.

When we arrived at the scene, we could still vaguely see the ancient houses and city walls built with pottery embryos in the village, but most of them were dilapidated and only a few were well preserved.

As soon as you enter this unique village, your eyes will be attracted by this unique house. It is not built with traditional mud and stones, but with a round "bowl". People can't help asking, what is the reason?

It is understood that this village has always been a poor village in ancient times, and the people lived in poverty. Until 300 years ago, a group of Minnan people wandered here to make porcelain bowls and built many ceramic workshops, which promoted the rise of local overseas trade. Since then, the villagers in Wanyao Village have started a rich life.

The local people found that when making pottery bowls, many bowl embryos would be left behind. In order to save materials, they will take them home and build their own houses. Some of the architectural relics we saw in front of us were handed down 300 years ago, which are rare in the world and form a unique ancient residence in Fujian.

In fact, this kind of bowl is not really a bowl for eating, but a tool for making bowls in kiln factory, called bowl embryo. Bowl embryo is cast in a high temperature fire of about 1500 degrees Celsius, but it is usually discarded after two or three times.

These round earth bowls are built in rows, and the solid walls of the house are made of earth, so you can feel a unique artistic atmosphere.

Wanyao Village is located at the junction of mountains and seas. Although the roots are unchanged, there are dense pine forests and high-quality kaolin, which is convenient for transportation. It has been a good place to burn porcelain since ancient times, which is also the reason why many Minnan ancestors migrated.

The houses were piled up and found to be surprisingly good. The bowl blank forged at high temperature is very firm, neat and beautiful, and also has the effect of heat insulation and sound insulation. It is warm in winter and cool in summer, so these old houses have been handed down from generation to generation.
