Longquan

Longquan (龙泉) is a small town located in the Zhejiang Province of China. It is near the town of Lishui. It currently has a population of around 270,000.

Notable Features

Lonquan is famous locally for its swords and porcelain, both of which are often regarded as the finest in China. Although most owners of Chinese swords and porcelain do not know it, there is a good chance that products were produced in Longquan.

The name "Longquan" is Chinese for "Dragon Fountain".
