The Kinmen Pottery Factory is the only government kiln in the ROC. Built in 1962, this factory turns out bottles for kaoliang spirits; the bottles are so interesting and artistically designed that they are avidly sought by collectors everywhere. The factory also makes other porcelain items such as reproductions of antiques, painted wall panel, and art objects with Ching Hua and crystallized glaze. No tourist in Kinmen should miss a visit to this fascinating factory.
