#Jingdezhen·Sanbao International Porcelain Valley [Location]# is the contemporary spiritual reserve of #Jingdezhen# as an international porcelain capital. Inheriting the porcelain gene of Hutian Kiln, the valley of dozens of kilometers between two low mountains is home to hundreds of ceramic creative studios of all sizes. Whether old, forty, thirty, young, returning to the scenery, or drifting in the scenery, they gather in this valley of more than ten kilometers to keep warm. The tourists who come here in an endless stream are more like uninvited guests, which have opened ripples in the tranquility here. Going up the stream along Sanbao Road, all the way to the end of the road, the valley is quiet and the birds are singing more crisply, the stream is gurgling under your feet, and you don’t follow Ruan Ji’s cry of despair, but instead want to return to farming. A spring rain at night, the lightness and heaviness complement each other.

☘️The hotel receptionist suggested visiting the sculpture porcelain factory if I wanted to buy souvenirs. So after breakfast, I took a bus there. ☘️I hoped to explore before it got too crowded, but I arrived too early. Many studios and shops were closed, creating a quiet and deserted atmosphere. However, this gave me a unique strolling experience, so I slowed down and leisurely wandered among the stalls that were already open. ☘️The stalls here weren't as solemn as those in museums; instead, they were full of lively atmosphere and vibrant creativity. What attracted my attention most were the rows of miniature blue and white porcelain pieces. Neatly arranged on shelves, they were crafted into various small bottles and jars, some round like pearls, others slender and elongated. Each piece is exquisitely crafted and adorable, its glaze gleaming warmly in the morning light, pleasing to the eye and making you want to take them all home. ☘️Besides traditional porcelain, the modern creative ornaments here are incredibly diverse and dazzling. The shelves are crammed with all sorts of uniquely shaped trinkets: adorable animal porcelain sculptures, colorful abstract figures, and many figurines and cartoon characters incorporating popular elements. These works are unconventional, full of youthful imagination, making it impossible not to stop and admire them. ☘️Passing through the porcelain section, the roadside jewelry stalls are equally captivating. Colorful glass beads and crystal-clear gems are strung into various bracelets and pendants. Picking up a string and holding it in your palm, the beads are round and smooth, the colors refreshing, possessing both traditional classical charm and modern fashion sense; each little accessory reveals the artisan's ingenuity. ☘️Although the time spent at the sculpture porcelain factory was short and I wasn't able to visit all the shops, the unique tranquility of the early morning, coupled with the exquisite and creative displays before me, made me feel very comfortable and reluctant to leave.

Taking a bamboo raft trip offers beautiful views of both sides of the river. The journey takes about 90 minutes and is entirely by manual pole-pole propelling. The water quality is excellent, crystal clear. Climbing Tianyou Peak requires considerable physical strength; I saw three people faint and need resuscitation along the way. Those lacking stamina are advised against climbing.
