In the history of Chinese civilization, jade culture is everywhere. The famous poems such as "gentlemen wear jade as beauty", "full of gold and jade", "golden words", "pure and pure", "better to be jade broken than broken", all reflect the status of jade in people's cultural life.
Long before the development of the Northern Silk Road in China, the South Asian continent has opened a land channel, namely the Shushan road. In this post road, Tengchong is the most important front and largest post station. During the dynasties of yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties, the jade jewelry producing area in northern Myanmar had long been subordinate to China. History gives Tengchong the status of distribution center. Xu Xiake, a traveler of Ming Dynasty, first recorded the production and trade of jadeite in Tengchong. He witnessed the processing and trade of jadeite in Tengchong from 1638 to 1639 and wrote it into his "travel notes".
