Guangzhou and Foshan.

I never thought about visiting Guangzhou before! I thought it was just a modern city with skyscrapers. By chance, I finally went. I wasn't disappointed, it's a very unique place. My favorite is the old town and Shamian Island, especially Shamian! It's not big, but the towering trees and beautiful western-style houses complement each other, almost allowing you to imagine what it looked like a hundred years ago and smell the air of a hundred years ago! Time has not faded or diluted it, turning it into a sigh of regret! It's also not overly maintained or renovated like ancient sites in other places, making it a laughingstock! However, compared to Foshan, I still have to vote for the latter. Because in Foshan, there are fewer skyscrapers, less noise and congestion, and less pressure on the mind!

Nanfeng Ancient Kiln

First, let me tell you something I find quite interesting: After arriving at Nanfeng Ancient Kiln, I witnessed a fight. The two sides were arguing fiercely. Although I couldn't understand much, it seemed that both sides were cursing quite badly. It felt like they were cursing for about three to five minutes, then they started fighting until someone came to break it up. I watched it from beginning to end and found it quite interesting (last picture). Nanfeng Ancient Kiln, known as the living fossil of ceramics, and Gao Kiln, have kept their kiln fires burning and production ongoing for five hundred years, which is rare in the world and has been recorded in the Guinness World Records. Nanfeng Kiln was built in the Zhengde period of the Ming Dynasty. Built against the mountain, it looks like a dragon descending, hence the locals call it 'Dragon Kiln'. However, the people of Shiwan call it 'Kiln'. The mouth of the Dragon Kiln faces south, and the tail of the kiln is shaded by banyan trees. When the cool breeze blows in summer, it is therefore called 'Nanfeng Kiln'. The structure and operation method of Gao Kiln is the same as that of Nanfeng Kiln. The name 'Gao Kiln' is because this kiln is built behind the Gao Temple. The kiln owner hopes it can inherit the prosperous incense of Gao Temple, so it is named 'Gao Kiln'. In addition, there are Gao Temple, Lin Family Hall, ancient buildings of Ming and Qing Dynasties, Shiwan Ceramic Museum, etc. in the Nanfeng Ancient Kiln Scenic Area, which are worth visiting. The transportation to Nanfeng Ancient Kiln is very convenient. You can take bus 169, 109, 120, 137, 155, 171 to Nanfeng Ancient Kiln (Zhongxin Market) station. Or take bus 101, 134, 150 to Taodu station, and walk for five minutes to reach Nanfeng Ancient Kiln.

As the New Year approaches, people in Guangdong will add some bowls, plates, flower trays, ornaments, etc., to decorate or replace some old furniture and utensils, implying the meaning of discarding the old and welcoming the new, and wishing for peace every year. Foshan, as a historical city in the Guangfu region, inevitably has these traditions, and the New Year's atmosphere is the strongest. Among them, the Ancestral Temple, Lingnan Xintiandi, Tongji Bridge, Chencun, and Nanfeng Ancient Kiln, these places are particularly worth visiting. Nanfeng Ancient Kiln, was an important production area for Guangfu ceramics during the Ming and Qing Dynasties. The ceramic utensils produced were exported overseas during the Ming and Qing Dynasties. There are still many ancient buildings from the Ming and Qing Dynasties nearby. The nearby Shiwan Eight Scenic Spots, the nearby ancestral halls, and then the ceramic products here are dazzling. Haha, if you reserve a day for shopping, it will be slightly sufficient. If you are traveling here, you can consider staying near the Ancestral Temple for one night, play for one day, and then take a taxi here the next day. The distance is very close

It was a great time to spend at the Nanfeng Kiln village. We have a chance to see the real kiln site where people made ceramic products the traditional way. Outside the Kiln we can enjoy walking around the village and take a look at various ceramic products in the shopping area.
