Luojia Yaobao is situated in Group 10, Fengqi Village, Yutang Town, Dujiangyan City, Chengdu, Sichuan Province, within a low mountainous and hilly area, with a distribution area of 2,439.66 square meters. It was a celadon kiln site dating back to the Tang and Song dynasties. The kilns were built in a sloping style, consisting of fire chambers, front and rear kiln chambers, partition walls, and flues. The lower layer mainly used spur supports, while the upper layer primarily used ring supports. The surrounding area of the kiln mound is scattered with discarded celadon shards and kiln tools, along with numerous abandoned kilns. These abandoned kilns protrude from the ground surface and are well preserved. The firing method mainly involved sand-layered stacking with support pads, and the interiors of vessels often show coarse sand marks but very few spur marks. Small ring-footed bowls unearthed from this period exhibit typical Song Dynasty styles. The varieties are divided into ceramics and kiln tools. Ceramic vessel types include bowls, plates, cups, small lidded jars, and pouring pots. Glaze colors comprise blue, green, blue-green, light green, brownish-red, beige, and light blue opaque glazes, among which blue-glazed, green-glazed, and light green opaque glazes are more common. The light green opaque glaze surfaces often feature fine crackles. Kiln tools include slabs, rings, tubes, spurs, and strips. The Yutang Kiln site is undoubtedly of great significance for studying the commodity circulation and cultural exchange between the Chengdu Plain and the northwestern Sichuan plateau, as well as the interactions between the Han ethnic group and the Tibetan-Qiang peoples in Sichuan. It is also one of the birthplaces of underglaze color techniques, possessing high historical and scientific value.

Fengqi Community: Fengqi Village is located between the world cultural heritages of Dujiangyan and Qingcheng Mountain. It serves as the gateway to the Aba Tibetan-Qiang Autonomous Prefecture and an important node on the golden tourist routes to Qingcheng Mountain, Huanglong, Jiuzhaigou, and Mount Siguniang. The village lies along the western Sichuan tourism loop and near Bao Ping Avenue. Woniushan Mountain in the village connects with “God of Wealth” Mount Zhao Gong. To the north, it borders Baima Village, about 1 kilometer from Panda Valley; to the south, it extends to Zhongxing Town; to the east, it neighbors Xinsheng Village and adjoins the CITIC Golf Sports Park, approximately 6 kilometers from the city center, enjoying a very superior geographical location. Tests have shown that Group 8 of Fengqi Village has a high concentration of negative oxygen ions, making it suitable for elderly residents... More detailed information about Fengqi Community++
