Introducing Yíxīng County
Yíxīng County (Yíxīng Xiàn) is famous for its tea utensils, particularly pots. Delicious tea can be made in an aged Yíxīng teapot simply by adding hot water, or so they say. The potteries of Yíxīng, especially in Dīngshān, are a popular excursion for Chinese tourists but see few foreign visitors.
