Yiwu, Trading metropolis in Zhejiang Province, China

The Yiwu International Trade City spans multiple buildings containing over 1.8 million different types of products across 236 distinct merchandise categories.

The city emerged from a small trading post where locals bartered chicken feathers for needles before 1600, transforming into a major commercial center after 1978.

The Guyue Bridge, constructed in 1213 during the Song Dynasty, stands as an architectural example of traditional Chinese stone arch construction methods.

The city connects to major destinations through Yiwu Airport, offering direct flights to Beijing, Guangzhou, and other primary Chinese metropolitan areas.

Manufacturers in Yiwu produce more than three billion pairs of socks annually, making it the largest sock production center in China.
