In 1973, fishermen from Quanzhou discovered some wooden blocks on a beach. They intended to use them for firewood, but found them hard to light. Later, they discovered these were the remains of a mysterious ancient ship from the Song Dynasty, dated to be more than 700 years old. This ship is now restored in the Quanzhou Bay Exhibition Hall of Ancient Ships at the Kaiyuan Temple.
