I thought Jingdezhen was beautiful until I visited Yaoli

The cobblestone paths are like unfired pottery; When raindrops fall, they take on the texture of porcelain. At the old tea pavilion, clay teapots brew last year's rainwater, The merchants who "went to Fuyang to buy tea last month" Have already become cracks in the county chronicles. The pottery bowls on the drying racks remain empty, Waiting for clouds, for rain, for the glaze to flow— All perfection is accidental, All cracks are beginnings. Dusk in Yaoli moves slowly, So slow that even a golden-repaired crack Can grow into new landscapes. 📖 Yaoli Ancient Town Guide 📍 Location: Fuyang County, Jingdezhen.
