Jingdezhen | Mountain Retreat Staycation

East of Wuhan, the wheels turn lightly, and amidst the laughter of a few close friends, you find yourself in the heart of the porcelain capital where the kiln fires have burned for a thousand years. Stay at "Sanshan Wuyue"—this porcelain charm residence.
Open the door, the tatami as clean as unglazed clay stretches out like a scroll, inviting you to step barefoot onto the private balcony. In the morning, hold a steaming cup of hand-brewed coffee, watch the daylight spill over white walls and blue tiles, and the morning melody of the porcelain capital lingers softly on the cup’s edge. At dusk, soak in the warm bathtub stocked with Roomplus amenities, as the lights outside gradually come on, and your fatigue, like dust on glaze, is gently washed away by the flowing water.
Is this trip just for sleeping?
At Taoxichuan, the clay speaks at your fingertips: hold the clay, throw the wheel, let the pottery wheel spin out the sound of shared laughter, the form takes shape, and friendship is molded too.
The glaze river of the museum: stroll through the China Ceramics Museum, where a thousand years of kiln fire flow through Song Dynasty celadon, Yuan Dynasty blue and white, and Qing Dynasty famille rose, silent as poetry.
Sculpture Factory Market finds: wander between dazzling old artifacts and new handmade creations, each shard, each humble cup, a token of time.
Fuzhou alleyway flavor roots: the crisp softness of fried dough wrapped in glutinous rice cake, the hearty beef bone noodles, the aroma of street food is the deepest longing on the tongue.
Morning light returns, and the local specialty breakfast is ready: the chewy alkali rice cake, the fresh aroma of dumpling rice cake, served with clear porridge and side dishes, the morning taste of the porcelain capital awakens your palate and gently closes the day.
