Pottery Warehouse

Businesses in China have this natural tendency to congregate every similar industry in the same town. Dingshan is apparently the central hub of pottery for the entire nation. I can verify that I saw this particular design of a brownish pot with yellowish dragon (stacked to the left of the truck) in about every city, town, and village I visited. In Dingshan, most every square meter not devoted to transportation was stacked high with pottery in all stages of production.

What I didn't see, strangely, were the piles of broken pots. Hmmm...
