Taoyangli Historic District
陶阳里历史文化旅游区
An old quarter centered on the Imperial Kiln Factory, where Ming-Qing kiln workshops, lane houses and the Zhongshan North Road pedestrian street form a single area. You can watch intangible-heritage porcelain-making here.
Taoyangli is a 4A-rated tourist area in the historic heart of Jingdezhen, covering about 3.2 square km. It links the Imperial Kiln Factory site, the Imperial Kiln Museum, the Ming-Qing kiln workshop cluster, the Xujia Kiln and other wood-fired kilns, the Longzhu Pavilion, surrounding lane houses and the Zhongshan North Road pedestrian street. In the Ming-Qing kiln workshop cluster, more than 30 intangible-heritage inheritors demonstrate processes such as wheel-throwing, trimming, painting and glazing, and visitors can pay to try wheel-throwing or underglaze painting. The combined ticket costs about 53 yuan and covers all the attractions in the area. The Imperial Kiln Museum requires advance booking and is closed on Mondays. The area is open roughly from 08:30 to 22:00, and the evening lights and street food make it especially lively. Combine it with the Imperial Kiln Museum for half a day to a full day.
