2026 Jingdezhen Travel Guide: must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transport & travel experiences (updated in August)

I've always wanted to come to Jingdezhen, this artsy little town. Finally had time this trip, so I rushed over with my girlfriends and now I’m sharing this Jingdezhen travel guide with you all 😆 No need to rent an electric bike during summer vacation, it’s too hot and sunny—don’t get heatstroke 😂 If you don’t need photos, you can skip some check-in spots. Even on weekdays, everywhere is crowded. Popular photo spots and trendy shops have long lines, and waiting in this weather can be really frustrating 😡 Every small shop and hotel I passed had great taste 🈶, making it super easy to take beautiful photos. You won’t want to stop walking and can spend hours exploring [crying with laughter]. Perfect for girls like me who love shopping and taking pictures 🥳 . ❤️ Must-visit spots ✅ Imperial Kiln Museum Free admission, but you can buy a ticket for Taoyangli Scenic Area 🎫 (53 RMB) 👉 Tour route: Longzhu Pavilion → Kiln Brick Alley → Xu Family Kiln → Imperial Kiln Museum Taoyangli has many photogenic spots 📷. Many girls wear Qing dynasty Hanfu to take artistic photos there. Going at 6 PM lets you capture daytime, sunset, and blue hour—absolutely stunning 🌇. It’s recommended to book 3 days in advance on the official WeChat account. Closed on Mondays, so don’t go empty-handed. . ✅ Sanbao Village 👉 Efficient check-in route: 9494 Aesthetic Space → Jingdezhen Wall → Taoka (🔥 popular gas cylinder, very crowded) → Bu Tu Art Shop → Sanbao Peng Art Colony → Sanbao Pottery Village → Sanbao Art Museum Sanbao Village alone has many exquisite shops to explore, perfect for spending half a day. There are ceramic shops, boutique stores, coffee shops ☕️, tea houses, hotels, handmade shops… Popular spots like Bukongshan, 3logycafe, and Under the Chestnut Tree. At night, visit Taoyang New Village Night Market about 1 km from Sanbao Village. No one can leave Jingdezhen empty-handed‼️ . ❤️ Accommodation We stayed at Secret Realm · Sanbao Design and Collection Hotel in Sanbao Village. The environment is great and quiet, perfect for photos 📷👍. When it’s too hot outside, enjoy some milk tea or coffee 🥤 and snacks in the hotel with air conditioning—it’s super comfortable. Head out again around 4 PM for more eating and exploring. This is what a vacation should be like ⛱️ ❤️ Food We tried both Ouji Food Stall and Home-style Meals. We all agreed Ouji Food Stall tastes better 😋 Recommended dishes: small yellow croaker, chicken feet, salted egg yolk lava toast, bamboo leaf vegetables… but the lines are serious. Even at 10:30 PM on a weekday, we waited half an hour. Peak times are even worse, so queue early 😂 . ❤️ Tips: ✔️ Summer vacation is very crowded; museums require early reservations, and you’ll have to queue for photos ✔️ Sun protection! The sun in Jingdezhen is no joke. Bring an umbrella + sun-protective clothing and hat + sunscreen + fan 🪭 (which can be a photo prop and also cool you down when it’s hot. Some indoor places don’t have air conditioning, like museums and the Jingdezhen high-speed rail station) ✔️ If time is limited, Jingdezhen is small enough for a special forces one-day tour 👉 One-day tour route: Sanbao Village ➡️ China Ceramics Museum ➡️ Imperial Kiln Museum ➡️ Fuzhou Alley ➡️ Sculpture Porcelain Factory ➡️ Taoyang New Village ➡️ Taoxichuan for night views .

Dear friends! Forget the crowded Jingdezhen~ Wangxian Valley in Shangrao, Jiangxi is the true secret realm of immortals! Buildings perched on cliffs, waterfalls forming rivers, and at night the lights shine like the immortal stage from "Cang Lan Jue."

The transportation guide is super simple · High-speed rail: Direct trains to "Shangrao Station" from various places. After exiting, take the scenic area shuttle bus (30 RMB/person, 1 hour to the visitor center), frequent departures so no waiting. · Self-driving/taxi: Taxi from Shangrao Station costs about 150 RMB, suitable for groups (can carry luggage + costume props), navigate to "Wangxian Valley Visitor Center." · Inside the scenic area: Walk! Many steps but not steep, just wear comfortable shoes. The scenery along the way makes walking and taking photos enjoyable. 🏡 Staying overnight is the right way to experience it You must stay inside the scenic area! Tickets are valid for 2 days, allowing you to enjoy the beautiful scenery alone in the early morning and at night: · Wangxian Valley homestay cluster: Choose the "Cliff Homestay" (open the window to waterfalls + hanging buildings, fall asleep to the sound of water at night); for families with kids, choose "Workshop Street Homestay" (close to the snack street, convenient for buying treats). · Hidden perk: Guests can use a special homestay passage to avoid the main entrance crowds. At 6 AM, go to Mingchan Alley to shoot the morning mist, feeling like stepping into an empty immortal world. 📸 2-day 1-night itinerary + photo spots Day 1: Explore the valley by day, chase the lights by night · 10:00 Qingyun Bridge: Stand in the middle of the covered bridge to shoot the triple waterfall from above.

Blue stone paths with red lanterns, shoot from low angles for depth, the empty shots are breathtakingly beautiful. · 9:00 Baihe Cliff Viewing Platform: Overlook the entire valley, including hanging buildings, waterfalls, and terraced fields, like a god’s view of an immortal town. · 11:00 Workshop Street interaction: Play pitch-pot and riddles with NPCs with kids to earn silver tickets, redeemable for small bookmarks; parents can watch intangible cultural heritage bamboo weaving (try making a small basket). · 13:00 Before departure: Sit by the triple waterfall again, watch sunlight pierce through the morning mist, every shot is a healing wallpaper. ✨ Thoughtful Tips 1. Dress code: Wear Hanfu or new Chinese style (rentals available in the scenic area, 100 RMB/set including hairstyle); if you’re cold-sensitive, wear a thin down jacket under the Hanfu coat (Jiangxi winters are chilly in the mornings and evenings but won’t affect photos). 2. Performance schedule: "Twelve Faces of Nuo Mask" at 11:00/15:00 (at the opera stage square), "Han Wedding" at 14:30 (in front of Yang Mansion, phoenix crown and embroidered robe are very photogenic), bonfire party at 19:30 (central square), arrive 10 minutes early to secure a spot. 3. Family-friendly: Steps are many but gentle, strollers can be used (some sections require lifting); hot water points are available in the scenic area for drinking anytime. The beauty of Wangxian Valley is the morning mist, the afternoon waterfalls, the night lights, and the immersive feeling of "every step a fairy tale." Tired of crowded ancient towns? This place is definitely the right choice!

July 27, 2026 Jingdezhen July clay and pottery hands-on guide! 30℃ digging into old kiln alleys, biting into juicy cold rice noodles In July, Jingdezhen’s daily temperature ranges from 24 to 33℃. The breeze in the old kiln alleys carries the subtle fragrance of clay. Stepping into the backyard of a ceramic workshop, the cool ceramic fan blows away most of the midday heat. First-hand experience in the small pits: on weekends, the Taoxichuan night market is so crowded in the evening that it takes 20 minutes just to inch forward. Around the Imperial Kiln Factory, the old alley paths get slippery with rain and broken kiln bricks in the afternoon. The street vendors selling “master hand-painted exclusive small ceramic cups” mostly offer mass-produced decal products that feel smooth with no hand-painted texture. But the highlights are unbeatable: sitting on the old workshop’s pottery wheel, feeling the cool clay in your palms, relaxing by the kiln mouth while biting into freshly chilled rice noodles, holding a slightly crooked cup you made yourself fresh from the kiln still warm in your hand—this is the perfect no-pressure summer getaway spot in northeastern Jiangxi’s porcelain capital. 📍Activity guide 1. Outdoor pottery wheel at the old workshop: start at 9 AM and find a family-run workshop hidden in an alley that’s been open for 20 years. The owner will guide you hand-in-hand to find the balance point. Even if your cup turns out crooked, the owner will fix, glaze, fire, and ship it to your home. No experience needed, and you can enjoy two hours of fun without getting bored. 2. Evening treasure hunt for small ceramics in Taoyang alleys: wait until the sun sets and stroll through the old alleys of Taoyang where local ceramic artists run small kilns. You can find small ceramic pieces and blue-and-white hairpins for just 10 yuan, which is 10 times better than the overpriced trendy stalls at Taoxichuan, with no risk of overpaying. 🏞️Sightseeing tips ✅Imperial Kiln Factory ruins side kiln pile spot: avoid the main check-in point with the hundred-person queue to climb the kiln tower. Walk 30 meters north to the old kiln pile ruins where broken blue-and-white porcelain shards are embedded in the old yellow earth wall. At sunset, the wall glows with a soft blue light, and photos come out with no strangers in the frame. ✅Wild kiln ruins behind Sanbao village: skip the crowded popular coffee spots on the main road. Follow the rocky trail behind the mountain for 15 minutes to find the old dragon kiln overgrown with wild grass. Broken discarded porcelain bowl shards scatter at your feet, and the breeze carries the scent of cedar trees. You can explore for half an hour without breaking a sweat. 📅2-day relaxed itinerary Day 1: Arrive at Jingdezhen North Station > take the 40-minute direct bus to a guesthouse near the Imperial Kiln Factory in the old city. In the evening, stroll to the Taoyang alley entrance to enjoy the classic cold rice noodles. Take your time waiting for the red lanterns in the old kiln alleys to light up. No need to rush to check-in spots. Day 2: Start at 7 AM to beat the crowd at the Imperial Kiln Factory ruins and touch the broken porcelain from the Ming kiln > in the morning, visit the old workshop to try pottery wheel and make your own small cup. In the afternoon, relax in the backyard with a fan and eat chilled tofu pudding. Take it slow and head back to the guesthouse before the afternoon thunderstorm. The pace is so relaxed you won’t even need an alarm. 🚗Travel tips From Jingdezhen North Station, take the high-speed rail shuttle bus 108. It costs 1 yuan and takes 40 minutes directly to the north gate of the Imperial Kiln Factory, saving you 50 yuan compared to taking an unlicensed taxi. Don’t trust the touts at the station offering “60 yuan private tours to all secret kiln spots.” They’ll take you to a remote artificial ceramic cultural park with no authentic kiln atmosphere. The old city has many flat alleys, so renting a shared electric scooter and cruising for 5 minutes is much more flexible than the tourist shuttle. 🏡Accommodation recommendation Choose affordable guesthouses converted from old ceramic workers’ dormitories near the Imperial Kiln Factory. For 160 yuan a night, you get a small balcony filled with handmade ceramic pieces. The owner offers a free pottery wheel experience with a 20% discount coupon and a local secret workshop hand-painted map. It’s a 2-minute walk downstairs to the Taoyang alley entrance, saving you half an hour of commuting compared to guesthouses at the foot of Sanbao village. At night, open your window to smell the clay fragrance drifting from the alley. 💡Practical tips 1. Don’t wear white shoes on the broken brick paths of the old kiln alleys. The aged glaze stains on the walls won’t come off even after three washes. 2. Bring a small portable cloth bag. Loose small ceramic pieces can easily break if carried in your pocket, but they’re safe in a bag. 3. Don’t buy “hand-painted exclusive small ceramic cups” for 30 yuan at the scenic area entrance. In the old city’s old workshops, you can find handmade ceramic tags carved by local artisans for 15 yuan, which make great bag charms with high recognition. 4. When exploring wild kilns, don’t pry off old kiln bricks. Falling weathered stones can hit your foot and cause swelling, ruining your trip. It’s not worth it.

My transfer adventure at Beijing Daxing Airport was wild—only 90 minutes between flights from Singapore to Urumqi! 😅 This was honestly my first-ever transit at Daxing, and I was low-key nervous. Praying hard for no delays because OMG, this place is massive! It’s been 20 years since my last Beijing trip, and Daxing Airport is totally new territory for me. We landed at Beijing Daxing International Airport (Address: Daxing District, Beijing, China. Open 24/7 for scheduled flights) right on schedule. Thankfully, our luggage got sent straight to our Urumqi flight (check this with your airline before you travel—seriously, it saves so much stress!). Signage is super clear, so finding immigration was a breeze. Pro tip: submit your Entry Declaration online (via NIA12367 mobile App or Alipay mini-program) before you leave Singapore. This fast-tracks your checks—just scan, temperature check, passport stamp, and you’re through! 🚀 Had a few minutes to explore, so I caught a quick peek at the airport's jaw-dropping exhibits. There’s an epic Great Wall development showcase and a beautiful outdoor Porcelain Garden, featuring stunning pieces from Jingdezhen. The vibes are honestly next-level! If you get lost—no worries! Just roll up to a self-help kiosk; it snaps your pic and instantly tells you where to go, including your flight time and departure gate. It’s legit mad efficient, and I was SO impressed! Need to chill between flights? Massage chairs are EVERYWHERE, so you can grab a mini spa moment. Plus, there are tons of shops and restaurants, but tbh, I barely had time to grab a snack (next time I’ll plan a longer layover for all the foodie adventures!). Honestly, 90 minutes flies by at Daxing Airport. If you want to do more than sprint between gates, schedule a longer transit and get ready to explore this iconic airport!

Jingdezhen is wonderful, but I won’t go back | afraid to use up all my gentle feelings🌧️ I really can’t find anyone who feels the same way as I do! Others travel to chase excitement, check off sights, and unlock new experiences. But after visiting Jingdezhen, I suddenly don’t want to come a second time. It’s not that it’s boring, unimpressive, or lacking surprises. On the contrary, this small town is so pure, so gentle, and so full of character. It doesn’t have the noise and restlessness of trendy cities or the repetitive commercial traps. Half of it is the heritage of kilns burning for thousands of years, and the other half is the relaxed poetry hidden in the mountains and fields. Once you’ve been here, it fills all your expectations of “Chinese-style romance.” I’m reluctant to return because I fear that any reunion won’t match the perfection of this moment✨ Here’s a curated immersive guide to the lesser-known, locally treasured side of the porcelain capital. No rushing, no crowds, just the purest experience of the city’s everyday life and aesthetics. 🌿 Avoid the crowds!

No need to fight for a photo spot—every shot looks like a classic ancient painting. Exclusive and refined, it completely avoids crowds, with an atmosphere that outshines popular photo spots. ▫️ Yaoli Ancient Town | The true sky-blue misty rain If the city center is the artistic porcelain capital, Yaoli is the Jiangnan in an ink painting. As the birthplace of kaolin, it holds the original base color of porcelain. Surrounded by mountains and streams winding around the village, Hui-style white walls and black tiles reflect in the water. Morning mist drifts over the river, and evening breezes brush the shore, without the noise of overdevelopment. Sitting by the river daydreaming for an afternoon, you finally understand the phrase “sky blue waiting for misty rain.” ▫️ Sanbao Porcelain Valley | An artistic utopia in the valley Stop rushing through on a bike! The beauty of Sanbao is hidden deep in a 10 km valley. Bamboo groves, streams, and old camphor trees fill the mountains, scattered with countless independent artist studios and niche mountain cafes. No need to hunt for attractions—just stroll slowly along the stream, watching artisans sketching clay and shaping porcelain. Nature and art blend together, relaxed and healing, a slow romance unique to the porcelain capital. 🏺 Classic spots | Experience from a new perspective ▫️ Imperial Kiln Museum More than just a photo spot with red brick buildings! The light and shadows after dusk, the scattered shards of broken porcelain at the ruins— Each fragment tells the story of a thousand-year-old official kiln. Just standing quietly is moving. ▫️ Ceramic Museum No need to follow the crowd looking for the expressionless Buddha! Take your time to see the evolution of porcelain glazes through the dynasties, from rustic coarse pottery to delicate blue-and-white porcelain. Immerse yourself in the craftsman’s spirit of “one piece shaped through hundreds of processes.” ▫️ Tao Xichuan & Letian Market Don’t blindly buy everything! Friday night markets and Saturday morning markets are full of original, one-of-a-kind creations by young artisans. Every piece of porcelain carries warmth. Take your time browsing and find your own niche romance. 🍜 Local eats | Hidden gems locals swear by Say no to trendy restaurants, only authentic home-style flavors ✅ Cold rice noodles, dumpling cakes: classic breakfast at the old town alley entrance, affordable and authentic, a bite that touches the soul ✅ Beef bone noodles: spicy and flavorful, the joy of slurping noodles maxed out ✅ Fried dough sticks wrapped in sticky rice cakes: a must for glutinous rice lovers, full of street food charm No expensive markups, just the simplest, most genuine local flavors 📅 2-day 1-night healing slow travel itinerary (perfect for first-timers) Day 1: Jinkeng Village → Porcelain Palace → Yaoli Ancient Town (stay in the ancient town to enjoy the night view) Immerse yourself in the original porcelain hometown and ink-wash Jiangnan, peaceful and healing with no rush Day 2: Ceramic Museum → Imperial Kiln Factory → Leisurely stroll through Sanbao Porcelain Valley → Tao Xichuan night market Cultural heritage + mountain relaxation + artistic street life, a perfect loop 💡 Heartfelt insider tips 1. Jingdezhen is definitely not for rushing through like a special forces mission! Slow down—that’s the right way to experience it 2. Wear light colors and new Chinese-style outfits to perfectly match the porcelain hues and landscapes 3. Buy porcelain thoughtfully—choose original pieces from niche studios, which are more meaningful than mass-produced souvenirs 4. Electric scooters are the best way to get around the city center, freely and soothingly weaving through old streets and alleys The reason I won’t return Is because this trip was too pure, too gentle, and too complete I’ve seen its dust-free mountain poetry, felt the warmth of its thousand-year kiln fire, tasted the bustling street flavors, and experienced its unhurried gentleness Some ultimate beauty, once encountered, stays with you for a lifetime🌧️

When many people think of traveling in Jiangxi, the first images that come to mind are the spring mountains of Wuyuan, the lively scenes of Jingdezhen, and the misty views of Lushan. Few notice that nestled in the dense forests at the junction of Hunan, Hubei, and Jiangxi provinces lies a one-stop resort where you don’t have to rush your itinerary. No need to squeeze into crowded popular spots or plan complicated routes—perfect for kids to burn off energy, couples to relax, or friends to gather. Spending a leisurely two days here is just right. 📍 Located in Luming Valley Resort Area, Hot Spring Town, Xiushui County, Jiujiang City, Jiangxi Province. Driving is the most convenient option: about 2 hours from Nanchang, around 2.5 hours from Wuhan or Changsha. Parking inside the park is free, so no extra hassle. If taking the high-speed train, arrive first at Nanchang West Station, then transfer to a direct shuttle bus—about 2 hours to the park entrance. A Relaxed Two-Day Itinerary, No Rush, No Stress Day 1 focuses on slow enjoyment of the mountains and nature, just follow your own pace. Arrive in the morning and take a stroll along Youyou Lake Trail. The lakeside plants are wrapped in the mountain stream’s moisture, and the breeze carries a fresh herbal scent. Stop by the unique shops in Luming Tribe to browse local handmade crafts and trinkets—walking and pausing here is very pleasant. Have lunch on Luxi Street, then find a café to relax and escape the midday sun. In the afternoon, slowly explore the pet interaction area. Sika deer, capybaras, and ring-tailed lemurs roam freely in the park. Squat down with the feeding food provided by the park, and the gentle deer will come close—soft and incredibly soothing. As the sunlight fades, head to the forest hot springs. The natural silicate hot springs are hidden among the trees, with each pool surrounded by greenery. Soaking for half an hour melts away all travel fatigue. Day 2 is for mountain fun to recharge your energy. In the cool morning, head straight to the Mid-Mountain Amusement Park. The play area is built along the mountain slope, offering mountain views while you enjoy the rides. The jungle zipline weaves through the mountain paths, and the glass slide spirals down with the wind brushing past your ears, bringing a refreshing mountain breeze to your smile. For those who prefer less thrilling rides, there are plenty of gentle options. Return to the street area for a warm lunch and a short rest. In the afternoon, dive into the Four Seasons Ice and Snow World. Inside the minus ten-degree space stand ice castles and ice slides—instant cooling in the summer heat. Southern friends can enjoy snow fun without waiting for winter. After the ice world, go to the outdoor stream trekking area to splash in the clear mountain spring water that reaches your ankles. Walking on the pebbles is refreshing and cooling. The mountain nights hide unexpected surprises If you visit on weekends, don’t miss the exclusive nighttime events. The intangible cultural heritage iron flower show is the highlight of the night tour. Molten iron is thrown into the night sky, exploding into countless tiny sparks that scatter across the dark sky like a shattered galaxy. Nearby, there’s a bonfire party and a forest light show. Warm lights line the path to the lake, and the evening breeze carries the scent of grass and trees, slowing down your whole rhythm. Taste the local mountain flavors When in Xiushui, you can’t miss the intangible cultural heritage food, Xiushui Shaozi. It’s made by mashing local hairy taro mixed with sweet potato starch to form a soft yet chewy outer skin, unlike sticky rice products that can feel heavy. The savory filling contains cured meat, fresh bamboo shoots, and shiitake mushrooms, bursting with mountain freshness; the sweet version is mixed with sesame and osmanthus, fragrant and gently sweet—a traditional festive treat. Luxi Street offers a wide variety of dining options, including authentic Gan cuisine, charcoal barbecue, and casual coffee meals. You can enjoy a satisfying meal for about 50 to 60 RMB per person, suitable for all budgets. Three types of accommodations to choose from as needed For privacy, we recommend Xiuhé Tangyuan. The standalone Hui-style courtyard comes with a private hot spring bath. Close the door and enjoy your exclusive quiet space—perfect for couples or those seeking rest and relaxation. For cost-effectiveness, choose Luming Hotel, located in the heart of the park. Step outside and you’re at all the play areas. Guests have easy access to the park, with a wide range of room types suitable for friends traveling together or regular families. For families with kids, Xiuhé Hot Spring Resort Hotel is best. It connects directly to the indoor water park and hot spring area, so no need to brave sun or rain going back and forth. It’s especially convenient for kids to play and soak. A few practical tips · This place is great year-round. Spring and autumn offer comfortable temperatures perfect for mountain sightseeing; summer is ideal for water play and the ice world; winter is best for soaking in the hot springs. · Mountain temperatures vary more between day and night than in the city, so bring a light jacket; wear non-slip sandals for stream trekking; the ice world is very cold—coats can be rented on-site, or bring long sleeves if you prefer. · Please buy the designated feeding food for the animals and do not feed them snacks you bring yourself; deer are more active in the morning, so arrive early for close interaction. · Weekends and holidays are busier; weekdays offer a better experience. The iron flower show usually starts around 8 PM—arrive a bit early to secure a good viewing spot.

After the exam, head to Jingdezhen and bring home your favorite porcelain panel painting along with your furry friends. The final exam bell has rung, marking a pause in twelve years of diligent study. Now is the perfect time to visit a city that slows down—Jingdezhen. Not to rush through tourist spots, but to pick a colored glaze porcelain panel painting in the galleries of Taoxichuan, or even have photos of your cats and dogs fired into everlasting porcelain portraits, then stay in a courtyard that truly understands porcelain—the Ruyuan Sky City Hotel. 🏨 Hotel Highlights An aerial courtyard design hotel next to the South Gate of the Imperial Kiln Factory, blending Shanghai style with modern Chinese aesthetics. The inlaid porcelain walls complement the sky garden, and it’s a convenient walk to Taoyangli and Yuxichuan, making it an aesthetic residence in the cultural heart of the Porcelain Capital. 🎨 New Porcelain Panel Paintings: Hang Colored Glaze and Your Pets on the Wall The new porcelain panel paintings you see at Taoxichuan are indeed some of Jingdezhen’s most charming collectibles. High-temperature colored glaze flows in the kiln to create landscapes, abstract, or minimalist images. Framed in wood, they have more vitality than any printed painting. Even more special—many studios offer custom pet portraits, hand-painting your cat or dog’s photo with glaze and firing it at high temperatures, with colors that won’t fade for a hundred years. For college entrance exam students, this is more meaningful than ordinary souvenirs: it records the people and things you love most in your coming-of-age year.

Browse galleries and pick porcelain panel paintings in the evening, and during the day visit Sanbao or the Sculpture Porcelain Factory to watch the hand-painting process.

The hotel often offers free pottery workshops where you can paint on raw porcelain and get a taste of porcelain panel painting. Customized small porcelain gifts are given upon checkout. 📌 Tips for College Entrance Exam Students Buying Porcelain Panel Paintings · Allow Time for Customization: Pet or portrait porcelain panels require hand-painting and firing, so place orders at least two days before your trip and choose shops that offer shipping. · Check the Glaze and Markings: Prefer high-temperature colored glaze with artisan signatures or studio marks for higher collectible value. · Size Considerations: For first-time collectors, 20×20 cm or 30×40 cm wooden frames are recommended, perfect for dorm rooms or studies. The pen is set down, and a new chapter of life awaits glazing. May you find that porcelain panel painting that captures your heart at first sight in the kiln fire and colors of Jingdezhen, in the courtyard light and shadows of Ruyuan—let it remember for you the freedom and passion of this summer.
