Anonymous userHotel is conveniently located 5-10mins walk away from back mountain bus station and surrounded by many eateries and convenience shops. Room was big, bed was extremely comfortable, and they gave quality toiletries. There was even floor heater to keep the room warm. There was free home style daily breakfast and free hotspring. Was told hotel has their own water supply from hotspring. Staffs were very friendly. They introduced a tour guide at RMB 500 for a day trip to climb the mountain with my group of 7 pax. The tour guide was knowledgeable and helped us saved a lot of time and energy to avoid climbing the most tedious trail, and brought us to the scenic trail.

julycallaWe live in Hongcun and come to Xidi today. I can't help but compare the two attractions: 1. The drone can scan the QR code at the Xidi ticket office to report (Hongcun is not allowed to fly). 2. We are foreign tourists, the staff is very enthusiastic, and thank us for coming to Xidi for sightseeing. 3. Xidi's buildings are very well preserved, commercialization is not as serious as Hongcun, and there are beautiful scenery at every corner. It has not been finished for a long time. 4. There is an observation deck at one end of Xidi's rice field, overlooking the entire Xidi. Very suitable for drone lifting. 5. Xidi is very quiet and leisurely, suitable for slowly strolling, unlike Hongcun, which is all travel photography. 6. We dine in millet coffee, the environment is beautiful, and the dishes are good. In Hongcun Village, I can't find a simple meal that I can eat ／ Western food.

大元脸葡萄Qiyun Mountain in April is beautiful like a fairyland. The clouds and mist are lingering, and the mountains are full of greenery, as if they are in a picture scroll. There are many monuments, and every place is hidden with traces of history. The air is fresh and refreshing. Although climbing the mountain is tired, the scenery along the way is great value, I want to come next time! 📸 Suggestion for the first picture: A mountain view of Qiyun Mountain, which highlights the sense of a fairyland.

delia165The Baguamen Bagua Village in Chengkan is very interesting, the lake view is beautiful, the fish light show at night is very experience, the first Baguamen in Jiangnan is also very magnificent, but the management is a little confused: maybe because the Baguamen is some distance from the lake, there have been evading tickets before, so I have set up a lot of ID cards. The access control, and the registered homestay in the village after 7.1, there is no discount for booking tickets, but the validity period is still three days, two more days than the one-day ticket I bought online. In addition, some villagers feel too profit-making: there are grandmothers arguing with each other for the 20 yuan explanation fee, and the private hotel next to Yongxing Lake is too expensive after coming out. After saying good prices, the price will be increased. The experience is very bad. Chengkan itself is very good, the sense of view and experience are very strong, but the overall development of the villagers is not strong, I hope to have the opportunity to see a better Chengkan next time.

行走在民间的艺术家A feast of ceramic culture through the millennium has long heard that Jingdezhen Ancient Kiln Folklore Expo Village is a paradise for ceramic culture lovers. This time I finally have the opportunity to come to punch in and the experience is directly full! 🚗 Transportation: It is very convenient to take a taxi from the city. It takes only 20 minutes to arrive. You can also take multiple buses such as the 1, 1 and 2 inner rings. You can get off at Fengshushan Station, which is very friendly to tourists. 🎫 Tickets: Buying tickets in advance on Trip.com is a bit more cost-effective than buying on-site. Adult tickets are 95 yuan, student tickets and elderly tickets have discounts, and 45 yuan can be won. Children below1.2 meters tall, elderly people over 70 years old, active-duty military personnel, etc. can also be free of charge, which is very user-friendly. 🌳 Scenic Area Environment: As soon as you enter the scenic spot, you will be attracted by the greenery and antique buildings full of eyes. The whole park covers an area of 83 hectares, and the greening is quite good. Walking around it, it seems to have traveled back to the ancient ceramic town. 🌟 Play highlights: 1. Ancient kiln display area in successive generations: This is simply a museum of ancient kiln! Song Dynasty Long Kiln, Yuan Dynasty Shantou Kiln, Ming Dynasty Hulu Kiln, Qing Dynasty Town Kiln...Each ancient kiln has a unique shape and historical story, standing in front of them, can really feel the inheritance and continuation of the millennium kiln fire. 2. Ceramics folklore display area: 12 ancient buildings in the Ming and Qing Dynasties are scattered, and there are rich ceramic folklore displays, as well as the Tianhou Palace, the porcelain monument corridor and other landscapes. If you are lucky, you can also enjoy the wonderful porcelain music playing, those instruments made of porcelain, the sound is crisp and pleasant, like a sky. 3. Intangible handmade experience: I highly recommend everyone to experience handmade porcelain! In the porcelain workshop, there are experienced masters teaching hand-to-hand, from mud rubbing, drawing to finishing, every step is full of fun and challenges. Although the finished product I made for the first time was a bit "crooked", but the sense of accomplishment created by myself is really unparalleled. 4. Ceramic capital around: the cultural and creative shops in the scenic area should not be missed, all kinds of exquisite ceramic crafts, souvenirs are dazzling, the price is reasonable, buy a few pieces to take back to relatives and friends, super commemorative. 📌 Play suggestions: 1. You can ask a scenic spot to explain, or rent a guide, so that you can understand more deeply the history of ceramic culture and ancient kiln, otherwise many details are easy to miss. 2. It is more appropriate to reserve 3-4 hours of play time. If you are interested in ceramic production, you can also arrange a whole day if you want to experience it for a while. 3. Note that the opening time of the scenic spot is 8:00 - 17:00, plan the itinerary in advance to avoid delaying play. Jingdezhen Ancient Kiln Folk Expo Village is really a good place to immerse people in the charm of ceramic culture. Whether it is adults or children, it can be full of harvests here. Highly recommend to every friend who comes to Jingdezhen!
