Activity itinerary

Imperial Kiln Cihuayuan (No.3 Branch)

  • 30m
  • Admission ticket included
Taoyangli Historical and Cultural District We begin in Taoyangli, one of Jingdezhen’s most important historic ceramic districts. Before entering the museum, your guide will introduce the day’s main storey: how Jingdezhen porcelain moved from imperial production to modern industry and contemporary art. You will get a sense of the old city fabric, narrow lanes, kiln-related remains, and the everyday environment that once supported porcelain production.

Imperial Kiln Cihuayuan (No.3 Branch)

  • 1h
  • Admission ticket included
Jingdezhen Imperial Kiln Museum Visit one of Jingdezhen’s most important museums, built within the Imperial Kiln historical area. Here we focus on porcelain made for the imperial court, archaeological discoveries, kiln waste, broken shards, restored objects, and the strict standards behind royal porcelain production. Your guide will explain why “failed” porcelain pieces are so important, how imperial taste influenced Jingdezhen, and why the city became the centre of high-level porcelain production in China.

Imperial Kiln Cihuayuan (No.3 Branch)

  • 30m
  • Admission ticket included
Imperial Kiln Archaeological Remains and Nanlu Site Area Walk through the archaeological remains around the Imperial Kiln area. This stop helps you connect museum objects with the actual production site: kilns, foundations, porcelain fragments, and the physical traces of ceramic history. This is where porcelain history becomes visible not only as finished objects, but as production, labour, failure, fire, and earth.

Imperial Kiln Cihuayuan (No.3 Branch)

  • 45m
  • Admission ticket included
Xu Family Kiln Workshop Area and Old Ceramic Lanes Continue into the old ceramic area around Taoyangli. Depending on opening conditions, we will visit or walk by traditional kiln and workshop areas such as the Xu Family Kiln area. This part of the tour focuses on the relationship between official production and local craft networks. You will see how Jingdezhen’s porcelain history was not made by one kiln alone, but by a whole urban ecosystem of craftsmen, workshops, merchants, and local families.

Taoxichuan Creativity Square

  • 1h
  • Admission ticket included
Jingdezhen Ceramic Industrial Heritage Museum Explore the modern industrial side of Jingdezhen porcelain. This museum introduces tools, machines, factory systems, worker stories, documents, old production methods, and the rise and transformation of state-owned porcelain factories. This stop is key to understanding how Jingdezhen moved from imperial and private workshop production into modern industrial manufacturing.

Taoxichuan Creativity Square

  • 40m
  • Admission ticket included
Factory Space in Taoxichuan Walk through preserved factory buildings, kiln structures, chimneys, and industrial spaces in Taoxichuan. Your guide will explain how old production spaces have been reused as museums, galleries, cafés, shops, studios, and public cultural spaces. This is a powerful contrast to the morning’s imperial kiln remains: the kiln is no longer only a royal production site, but part of a modern industrial and creative city.

Taoxichuan Art Gallery

  • 40m
  • Admission ticket included
Visit a current exhibition or art space in Taoxichuan, depending on the exhibition schedule. This stop shows how ceramics have moved beyond functional objects into contemporary art, installation, design, and cross-cultural dialogue. The exact exhibition may vary by date.

Taoxichuan Creativity Square

  • 45m
  • Admission ticket included
Artist Studio / International Residency Area End the cultural journey with Jingdezhen’s living creative scene. Depending on availability, we will visit or introduce selected artist studio areas, international residency spaces, or contemporary ceramic workshops. This final stop connects the city’s long ceramic past with the people still working here today: independent artists, designers, makers, and international residents.

Taoxichuan Creativity Square

  • 30m
  • Admission ticket included
On selected evenings, especially weekends, guests may have time to explore Taoxichuan’s creative market, where young artists, designers, and makers present original ceramic works and handmade objects. Market availability depends on date, weather, and local schedule.
