Jianyang is adistrict in theprefecture-level city ofNanping, in the northern part ofFujian province,People's Republic of China. Its population was 340,843 in 2020.[1]
Jianyang has rich natural resources:bamboo,tea and water power.
From the 11th to the 17th century, commercial publishers established in the area used local bamboo for paper manufacturing and made the area one of the three largest book-producing areas in China in theSong (960–1279) andYuan (1271–1368) dynasties. The area continued to be an important printing center into theMing epoch (1368–1644).[2]
Starting in theSouthern Song (1127–1279), the county was served by the Chong'an trade route, which connectedQuanzhou on the Fujian coast (the nation's major port for trade with Southeast Asia in those days) with northeasternJiangxi province. This route allowed shipping of local products, notably books, to the major markets of thelower Yangtze region using mostly water transport, with just a fewportages.[2]
Jian ware was produced here during the Song dynasty. Master Xiong Zhonggui's Jiyufang Laolongkiln (吉玉坊老龍窯), located in a village near the town ofShuiji, has been able to restart production ofJian Zhan using original clay.[3][4][5]
