Jingdezhen | Fang Qi was right, Yao Li is indeed stunningly beautiful!

Yao Li, also known as 'Yao Li', is the birthplace of Jingdezhen ceramics, but now it seems that Yao Li Ancient Town has little to do with 'ceramics'. What exists is the 'azure misty rain' described by Fang Wenqing's writings, which is no exaggeration. Just like in Fang Qi's video, it is truly breathtakingly beautiful!!!! 😍 When it rains in Yao Li, a layer of mist envelops the town. Breathing in the mountain air in the early morning is like a spiritual cleansing; I simply do not want to leave. We were pressed for time and left after taking some photos like tourists. If you have more time, you can stay in the ancient town for a few more days. (Food and lodging in the ancient town are very convenient) 📍Location: Yao Li Town, Fuliang County, Jingdezhen City, Jiangxi Province (50 kilometers from Jingdezhen City Center) 🚗Transportation: 1⃣️Most tourists take a chartered car for a day trip along the route from Cigong to Hanxi Village to Yao Li (300-350💰, anything beyond this range is a rip-off, so run away), which is a cost-effective option for group travel. 2⃣️Taking a taxi from Jingdezhen City Center costs 100💰 one way, but it's difficult to hail a taxi back. The only option is to take a bus🚌, with two trips a day, at 14:00 and 19:00, which is quite troublesome. Not recommended❌ 🎫Ticket: 🆓, the 150💰 pass mentioned online includes the Wanghu area outside of Yao Li Ancient Town, which is not necessary. 🍜Cuisine: Alkaline water rice cake is a local specialty, reportedly invented by the people of Yao Li during the war years to provide the army with reserves of food that were easy to carry and would not spoil easily. 📚About sightseeing: 1⃣️The ancient town is paved with bluestone slabs, and every place is photogenic, so it's nice to just take a leisurely walk, and you might occasionally encounter some artists sketching. 2⃣️📷For photography, it is recommended to use zoom and telephoto lenses, as the distant landscapes and Hui-style architecture are interspersed and very beautiful. 3⃣️For attire, it is suggested to wear plain-colored dresses or traditional Chinese Hanfu or Qipao, and having a paper umbrella would be even better!
