💌【Notes】
When my child held the crooked tea cup they made and said “I want to pass it down to my grandchildren,” I suddenly understood the charm of Jingdezhen—it’s not a cold museum, but a magical place where millennia-old culture is revived in the clay. Here, every child is a born artist, and every family can create unique memories. This summer, bring your kids to Jingdezhen for a millennium appointment with the earth!✨
