I found a niche new inspiration town in Jingdezhen

"The green bricks and black tiles welcome the rain, and as I lift my gaze, I suddenly see the distant mountains shrouded in mist, with the rain and fog painting a scene. The heavy rain and the sound of tiles in the wind create a rustling sound, while the slender bamboos sway, hiding the green mountains behind the scenery. In my drunken babble, I speak of the ink by the mountain side, yet looking closely, I know I am but a guest in the painting." Yaoli—a town suitable for strolling on rainy days I think the term 'Jiangnan misty rain' couldn't be more appropriate to describe this place. The river flows through the ancient town, slowly winding through the millennium, with the reflections of ancient houses and old trees on both banks painting a picture, where one can faintly see people in long robes enjoying tea and chatting by the river. Walking along the wooden bridge and strolling on the bluestone slabs, looking back, I find myself already in the painting. Touring suggestions: 🎫 The ancient town is free of charge Yaoli Ancient Town is quite far from the center of Jingdezhen, about a forty-minute journey, so it is recommended to drive or charter a car to get there. It is suggested to go in the morning or before noon, as it gets more crowded in the afternoon and not very photogenic Yaoli Ancient Town is a bit commercialized, but still nice, and it's not recommended to eat in the ancient town as it's quite expensive. You can choose to eat back in Jingdezhen I think it's important to enjoy the scenery along the way when driving to the ancient town, it's truly amazing. When I went there, it had just rained, and it was super beautiful!!! Oh, by the way, it seems you can pass by a tea plantation on the way, called Hanxi Village. I didn't go because I was so hungry and wanted to eat, but I saw photos taken by others and they were very photogenic. If you have the energy, you might want to take some pictures, it seems very nice. Accommodation: I stayed at the Chuyue Homestay, we drove there that day, and although the homestay is about fifty minutes from the ancient town, it's about the same time as from the city center. Moreover, this homestay is in Fuliang County, so it's quite close to the center of Jingdezhen, about a twenty-minute journey, which is very nice. The main thing is that it's quite convenient if you're driving. The one I stayed at is actually quite recommendable, the breakfast is super delicious, and I always eat so much that I'm not hungry until noon. The environment is very good, very close to nature (I ate so much in the morning, went to Yaoli, saw the food there was so expensive, didn't eat there, and didn't have lunch in the city until after 2 PM, luckily I had a big breakfast, or I would have starved) If you want to stay in Yaoli for a night, there are actually many nice homestays to choose from. Next time I come to Yaoli, I might stay at "Yaohelou" and climb the surrounding mountains the next day, which should be very nice, and also get a view of Yaoli. I'll experience it next time I come.
