Jingdezhen, which attracts 60,000 people a year, is on fire, and on weekends, stations, museums, and cafes ......... It's all a scene of queuing to check in.
And the idle people began to turn their eyes to its subordinate town, only 20min drive from Jingdezhen, a thousand-year-old county that has been recorded in history by the fragrance of porcelain tea - Fuliang.
Bai Juyi's famous sentence in "Pipa Xing": "The businessman values profit and neglects parting, and Fuliang buys tea in the previous month." "It is said that it has been a floating beam of tea distribution center since the Tang Dynasty.

Fang Wenshan's lyrics in "Azure is waiting for smoke and rain, and I'm waiting for you." "I wrote it when I saw the misty Yaoli Ancient Town.
This is not only not the replacement of Jingdezhen, but the origin of Jingdezhen ceramics.
Guo Moruo once said: "To interpret the porcelain capital, we must take the floating beam as the original version." "There are hundreds of ancient kiln ruins in the Donghe and Nanhe River basins in Fuliang County.
There are 5 ancient roads around Hui in Fuliang, connecting 102 ancient villages nearby.
Dongbu Wharf, which collects and distributes kaolin, glaze and other raw materials needed for porcelain making in Jingdezhen, has also become the "source of the Maritime Silk Road".
Yantai Village, Cangxi Ancient Village, Dongbu Village, Xianghu Village...... There is hardly much trace of commercialization.
The bluestone pavements of ancient trees, wooden bridges, and smoke willow alleys, as well as the laughter and laughter of the elderly and children, restore the paradise-like life to the real world.
Fuliang, what people yearn for is no longer a few check-in spots, but the leisurely life attitude nourished by the mountains and rivers there.
The source of porcelain, the land of tea
An art village that coexists with the land is nurtured
Live shot: The Lamp of the Earth
When I went to Fuliang in May, I was full of verdant green.
But the name "floating beam" was first related to cutting down trees. "Fuliang County Chronicles" contains: "When the stream is flooded, the people cut down more trees for the beams, so the name is Fuliang." ”
In addition to cutting wood to build bridges and build houses, the major porcelain factories in Jingdezhen in the early days also needed to burn a large amount of pine wood to burn firewood kilns. Until the 80s of the 20th century, many villagers in various villages in Fuliang County made a living by cutting firewood.
Although villagers planted pine trees along the surrounding hills along both sides of the Changjiang River, they still couldn't cope with the pressure on the forests caused by the huge amount of timber used.
With the implementation of ecological policies and the upgrading of porcelain-making technology, the loss of raw materials has been reduced. We were able to see the poetic pastoral scene surrounded by greenery and 10,000 acres of tea fields.
For thousands of years, the ancestors picked leaves here for tea and clay for utensils, and now, the people who live on this land have made the ancient charm of tea porcelain and modern art have a better connection with the land under their feet.
/Hanxi Village/
Live shot: Hanxi Village Tea Field
Hanxi Village is not only one of the origins of Fuliang tea, but also an art museum without a roof.
In the past, Hanxi Village was almost deserted. In 1966, the villagers who moved to the area due to the construction of the Xin'an River Reservoir reclaimed rice fields and tea plantations here. They don't eat spicy food, but they are still used to communicating in Zhejiang.
Because they missed their homeland, they brought the village name "Lion Garden" to their new home and renamed it "Shizi Garden".
"Dust in Evolution - Memories of Shiziyuan Village";
On the walls of the villagers' houses next to the rice fields, artist Xiang Yang used 17 different colors of paint to depict different figures, representing the first generation of immigrants who moved to this place by 17 families.
The scraps of paint peeled off by the carving knife are packed into a small transparent bag beneath the figure, sealing the memories and dust together.

A wooden ladder "three feet above the ground" grew in the tea garden. Two toasters are depicted on the side of the rice brewery facing the street, and the window is located right at the mouth of the figure, and when it is opened, it seems to be laughing at passers-by.
The lamp of the earth stands on top of the 10,000 acres of tea plantations. During the day, the wind from the mountains passes through the tree of life, and at night, it spreads light on the tea fields.
Such art installations are scattered throughout the village. Walking around the tea plantations, it is very likely that you will meet enthusiastic villager docents, and constantly pull out the old memories behind them.
In fact, it is not the art itself that moves visitors, but the stories of people and land conveyed through art.
/Fuliang Ancient County Ya/
Fuliang Ancient County Ya, was founded in the Tang Yuan and eleventh years (816).
In ancient times, the county government was generally seven grades. Due to the prosperity of Fuliang tea and porcelain economy, Fuliang Ancient County Ya is as high as five grades, and it is the county government with the highest grade in China.
The building specifications of Fuliang County Ya are also quite high, covering an area of nearly 100 acres, it is one of the only four ancient county Ya in the mainland, and it is also the only preserved Wupin County Ya of the Qing Dynasty in the south of the Yangtze River, and has the reputation of "the first Ya in the south of the Yangtze River".
Live shot: Red Tower
For more than 1,100 years, the ancient city has been the political, economic and cultural center of Fuliang. On the right side of the ancient city is the towering Song Dynasty Red Tower, known as "the first tower in Jiangxi".
The red tower was originally blue-gray, and the erosion of wind and rain for many years has caused the red clay color inside the building to overflow, dyeing the tower body red, but it has a unique charm.
/Kaolin Chinese Village/

The colorful rape flowers in Gaoling China Village are long out of season, but there are still dozens of different flowers in the flower field, which is perfect for taking photos.
After watching the sea of tea in the flower field, you can also change into Hanfu, walk into the Datang Tea Market, watch immersive live song and dance performances, and reap the pleasure of buying things with copper coins and silver.
However, if you want to trace the origin of the porcelain capital, you have to go to the Gaoling National Mine Park.
The world-famous kaolin is produced in the village of Kaolin in Yaoli. Although Gaoling Village has stopped mining porcelain clay since the 60s of the last century, there are still a few descendants of miners living here, and showing the world the scenery of the source of porcelain.
/Xinping Porcelain Palace/
The Porcelain Palace is located in Xinping Village, and the main building is three Hakka walled house style tube buildings.
The whole body of the building is inlaid with tens of thousands of porcelain tiles, porcelain vases, and porcelain plates. Exquisite, pastel, blue and white, color glaze, Jingdezhen's four famous porcelain are displayed here.
The owner of the porcelain palace is an old grandmother named Yu Ermei, who is now over 90 years old. At the beginning, despite the opposition of her family, she devoted half her life to building the porcelain palace in front of us with more than 60,000 pieces of porcelain.
She said: "There is a Forbidden City in Beijing, and there is a porcelain palace in Jingdezhen. "She wants to leave an exclusive mark on porcelain for Jingdezhen in her own way.
/Propylene firewood kiln/

The Bingding firewood kiln designed by the famous contemporary architect Zhang Lei is located in the small existing firewood kiln in Fuliang.

The building maintains the traditional kiln style, but also incorporates modern fashion elements, and the combination of Western structure and Eastern rhythm makes it a popular check-in place.
With a rain of azure smoke
Satisfy your imagination of poetic Jiangnan
The floating beam is located in the northeast of Jiangxi, at the junction of Jiangxi and Anhui. There are not only the white walls and tiles of the Hui style architecture, but also the blue bricks and black tiles of the Jiangxi-style buildings, which are quietly hidden among the mountains and rivers.
"Yaoli waited for the smoke and rain, and Fuliang bought tea. That's true.
Most of the ancient villages in Fuliang have not been over-developed commercially.
Walking through the thousand-year-old village along the Ancient Tea Horse Road, listening to the sound of flowing water, we seem to have stepped into this gentle and lingering old time.
/Yaoli Ancient Town/
Live shooting: Yaoli Ancient Town
Yaoli, known as "kiln" in ancient times.
Since the middle of the Tang Dynasty, there have been handicraft workshops producing porcelain here. Yaoli Ancient Town is just one of the attractions in Yaoli Scenic Area.
The bench bridge connects the blue bricks and tiles on both sides of the river. The girls put their hair in a bun and walked across the river with oil-paper umbrellas.
Rows of old houses line the river, and tourists stroll along the bluestone pavement full of traces of time, passing by Wolong Pond and walking past the Fish Scale Dam.
There are old people washing by the river, and children playing on the bank. As passers-by, we are looking forward to another "azure smoke and rain" before leaving.
/Wanghu Ecological Scenic Area/
Some people say that Yaoli Ancient Town is suitable for northerners to feel the atmosphere of Jiangnan, and southerners who are tired of seeing the ancient town can go to the nearby Wanghu Ecological Scenic Area.
The forest coverage rate in the scenic area is as high as 95%: stroll in the primeval forest, look for the Nanshan Waterfall, walk through the thousand-year-old Huizhou Ancient Road, and start a healing journey in the forest.
/Dongbu Village/

Compared to Yaoli Ancient Town, Dongbu Village is a more niche village. The village also retains the quaint streets and stilted buildings of the Ming and Qing dynasties.
Image source @ Fuliang release
As early as the Ming and Qing dynasties, Dongbu Wharf was the distribution center of kaolin and other raw materials needed for porcelain making in Jingdezhen, and was known as the ancient "source of the Maritime Silk Road".
The village still retains its old appearance, but the bustling streetscape of the past is long gone. There are few residents in the ancient street, only the old houses along the river are still inhabited by the elderly. We can only get a glimpse of the bustling scene of the pier from the names of the shops that exist along the pier.
/严台村/
Live shooting: Fuchun Bridge, Yantai Village
Yantai Village is built on the mountain. The villagers live along the river, among which there are more than 140 ancient houses built by the Hui school. At the entrance of the village, there is a peaceful scene of small bridges and flowing water.

Yantai Village is rich in tea. Therefore, there are many tea numbers in the village. The "Tianxiang" tea brand also won the gold medal of the first Panama Expo.
During the Ming and Qing dynasties, there were 5 oil mills in the village. Now only the Daxin Oil Mill retains the hand-pressed oil process.
Walking in the streets and alleys of the ancient village, stopping in front of the old stage thousands of years ago, in a trance, time stopped flowing in this ancient village. Only the retro-style hair salon in the village has traveled through time to come here.
/Cangxi Ancient Village/
Cangxi Ancient Village is not far from Yantai Village, and the two villages can be visited together.
Cangxi Village has a history of more than 1,700 years, and it is also surrounded by mountains and rivers, with ancient trees towering to the sky.
When you come to Cangxi, don't forget to check in the ancient Yingfang, and then visit the former residence of the ancient monks, so stop and stop to "squander" for half a day.

Whether it's the location or the product, kiln pizza is memorable.
It is a pizzeria that opens by the river. The owner is a kiln designer. The large and small kilns in the shop are designed and built by himself.

Under the big trees by the river, guests eat hand-baked pizza and watch the whole process of pizza making. By the way, if you want a good seat by the river, don't forget to make a reservation in advance.
A guesthouse in the middle of the mountains
Unlock 100 reasons to stay on the floating beam
Some people hurriedly came to the floating beam to take a tour, and only after going back did they understand the deep meaning of the floating beam in the poems and songs, and regretted it.
There are also people who come once and never want to leave the land again. They found a few houses in the mountains and wilderness of Fuliang and began to build their spiritual home, which also gave more people a reason to stay in Fuliang.
/Hoe Moon B&B/
Photo source @ hoe moon symbiosis home;
While the Sanbao Village and the Sculpture Porcelain Factory in Jingdezhen became more and more lively, many "Jingpiao" moved their life circle to these small villages in Fuliang.
In the winter of 2016, Nanshan and Mr. Wang found an old house in Shuangfeng, Xianghu Lake, to create a home for their children to grow up in nature.
They demolished the old house and rebuilt it, waited for the flowers and plants around the house to grow, and then reclaimed a farm......... Slowly took root in the land of Fuliang.
They turned their lives into a Chinese version of "Little Forest". "Ho Moon" B&B was born in this process.
The name of "hoe moon" comes from Tao Yuanming's sentence: "Morningside is desolate, and the moon hoes return." ”
Through the integration of farming (farming life), reading (nature education), food (organic food), utensils (utensils culture) and other aspects, B&B has created a new organic ecology integrating B&B/aesthetic education/grocery store/farm, allowing guests to feel the rural life of Hoe Moon in an all-round way.
Last year, Ho Yue won the 7th "Black Truffle Award" Annual Boutique B&B List and Small and Beautiful B&B Award.
Although the hoe moon is small, it is born to "grow slowly but firmly". The connection between the hoe moon and the guests takes place in the four seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter: a story with a season and a season.

If you are interested in the traditional porcelain-making process, then you must not miss the Siru Return B&B with the theme of firewood kiln.
The B&B is located in Yaowuer Yuyao Villa, Ehu Town, adjacent to Gaoling Chinese Village. The jade kiln inside the B&B is one of the few traditional kilns in China that uses pine as fuel.

Not only are the ceramics displayed in the B&B fired using the ancient method of Jingdezhen's traditional firewood kiln, but guests can also experience the whole process of porcelain making here.
From the batching, washing, mud stepping, molding, decoration, glaze selection, application and other processes, all follow the ancient method, and strive to restore the traditional firewood kiln firing techniques of Jingdezhen that are on the verge of being lost.
The name of "Siru" is taken from the metaphorical craft realm of "white as jade, bright as a mirror, thin as paper, and sound like a rock".

The B&B is equipped with modern and comfortable furniture and soft furnishings in the courtyard of the ancient Hui school, and the rooms are named after the 12 zodiac signs, spring, summer, autumn and winter, plum orchid, bamboo chrysanthemum, qin, chess, calligraphy and painting, and Fu Lu Shou.

/Clouds and Fog Inn/
The original appearance of Tali Village in 2017;
The tower where the clouds and fog are located is the location of the ancient tea garden of Tianxiang Tea. The inn was formerly a deserted ancient village, and there are still a few families living here to protect the tea plantations.
After the reconstruction, the Yunli Wuli B&B cluster is built on the mountain, which is divided into three parts: Yunsu, Tea and Huasu, with a total of 35 rooms, which can accommodate about 80 people at the same time.
Yunsu is located at the highest point of the mountaintop. Almost every room has oversized floor-to-ceiling windows and terraces. Even anyone in bed can enjoy the natural scenery.
The tea house retains the characteristics of the yellow mud rammed earth used on the exterior walls of the local buildings.
Each room is equipped with a tea set, as well as a floating black tea customized by Tianxiang Tea. Each room also has a special tea room, where you can immerse yourself in the local tea culture while making tea.
Located by the pool in the B&B cluster, the exterior has not been specifically designed, and the interior is a Nordic-style Loft room. Billiards, chess and cards, self-service barbecue, karaoke, tea tasting, camping, sketching, mountaineering, bonfire party...... There are many ways to relax in the clouds.
The mountain advocates "not eating from time to time": freshly picked wild vegetables and bamboo shoots, wild fish and shrimp in small rivers, and local chickens and ducks raised in the mountains can satisfy our taste buds.

Staying overnight in the conference into the floating beam
Pictured: Yaoli Ancient Town
Jingdezhen, which is endlessly popular, received a total of 3,931,400 tourists during this year's Spring Festival holiday, and the market of "homestay + porcelain culture" continues to heat up. Under the flow of "pouring heaven and wealth", Fuliang is the best place to undertake the overflow of Jingdezhen's traffic.
Since ancient times, Fuliang has been the hometown of tea and porcelain, where nature and humanistic charm meet, forming a natural creation field, attracting countless homeowners and art craftsmen to live and create here. The breakthrough of literary and artistic projects such as "Art in Fuliang" has made Fuliang one of the destinations for young people in China.
Live shot: The Lamp of the Earth
Relying on the characteristics of "porcelain tea", Fuliang B&B has the natural advantage of creating "B&B +" content, and with the strong support of national policies and the opening and operation of Changjinghuang High-speed Railway, the county has built a half-hour traffic circle. With the superposition of these favorable conditions, the homestay industry of Fuliang will usher in a new period of rapid development.
From May 15th to 17th, 2024, the conference will be held in Fuliang, with the theme of "Re-SU Fuliang", which will be grandly opened at Jiangxi Fuliang Gaoling Chinese Village Village Village Chief's College.

At present, there are still a small number of open places, and the number of places is limited, and the number of places is on a first-served basis.
We sincerely welcome holidaymakers from all over the country
Walk into Fuliang and participate in the creation of the first international rural art sojourn and vacation destination in China.
