“Step into the world-renowned porcelain capital of China — Jingdezhen — where centuries of craftsmanship, artistry, and cultural heritage come together in a single day of curated exploration.
Wander through living kilns and traditional Qing-era workshops at the Ancient Kiln Folk Customs Museum, where porcelain is still shaped, glazed, and fired just as it was a thousand years ago. Hear the hiss of fire, smell the faint scent of clay, and feel the rhythm of time carried through generations of artisans.
In this city where emperors once ordered their finest porcelain, the Imperial Kiln Museum reveals the secrets of royal craftsmanship. Set on the original site of imperial kilns, the museum’s kiln-shaped halls and excavated ruins immerse you in Jingdezhen’s golden age of porcelain.
The China Ceramic Museum offers a sweeping view of Jingdezhen’s ceramic journey — from early handmade pottery to refined imperial ware and modern design. Through rich displays and historic pieces, you'll come to understand why the name “China” became synonymous with porcelain around the world.
On Mondays, when the Imperial Kiln Museum and China Ceramic Museum are closed, the visit will instead include Sanbao Village as a cultural alternative. Nestled in the misty bamboo hills, Sanbao Village is a haven where tradition meets innovation. Home to a vibrant community of international ceramic artists, this creative space offers the perfect pause.
Depending on the day of your tour, you could explore one of Jingdezhen’s distinct ceramic districts. On weekends, stroll the Taoxichuan Art Market, an energetic cultural hub transformed from old factory buildings into shops, galleries, and design cafés. Or visit the intimate Le Tian Pottery Market, where emerging ceramic artists share their latest creations in a cosy courtyard setting.
If you’re visiting on a weekday, you’ll explore the Sculpture Ceramic Factory Street, a equally rich slice of Jingdezhen’s creative life, with unique boutiques and hidden ceramic studios tucked between everyday streets.”
