We stayed in a panoramic room with windows overlooking Shangtan Village's ancient tree and river... - 2️⃣ Jingdezhen ✔️ Porcelain Palace: I think it's very photogenic, great for photography lovers 📷 The only downside is it's a bit far ✔️ Sculpture Porcelain Factory: Perfect for a casual stroll 🚶‍♀️ Photo spots everywhere! There are also many beautiful and interesting small shops inside ✔️ Sanbao Village: We mainly went to visit 📍 Mom's Bakery, and the Jingdezhen logo wall next to Tao Cafe ✔️ Imperial Kiln Museum: Not great for portrait photos at night 🥹 but the museum is beautiful both inside and out!! 🏠 Accommodation: We chose to stay inside the Taoyangli scenic area.
