Jiangxi Tour - Jingdezhen Imperial Kiln Museum

Jingdezhen Imperial Kiln Museum Jingdezhen, Jiangxi Explore the ceramic culture of Jingdezhen, and the Imperial Kiln Museum is a destination you cannot miss. The Imperial Kiln Museum is located in the Taoyangli Scenic Area. This museum, formerly known as the Jingdezhen Official Kiln Museum, is famous for its unique linear brick arch structure and is known as one of the most beautiful museums in China. The Imperial Kiln Museum is located next to the Imperial Kiln National Archaeological Site Park, displaying precious relics and artifacts from the royal kilns of the Ming and Qing dynasties, many of which represent the highest level of craftsmanship in Jingdezhen. The Jingdezhen Imperial Kiln Museum is in the shape of the Chinese character "亚" and is a pavilion-style building with a reinforced concrete imitation wood structure, with a total of six floors, including bright and dark floors. The flying eaves and corners are majestic and have the style of ancient Jiangnan architecture, and the top floor offers a panoramic view of the city. Halls 1 to 8 display blue and white porcelain, colored porcelain, pastel porcelain, enamel porcelain, and other porcelain produced by the imperial kilns of the Ming and Qing dynasties, as well as porcelain produced by folk kilns of past dynasties. The Blue and White Secret Realm Exhibition Hall showcases the evolution of blue and white porcelain through four chapters: "The Great Change of Porcelain, Microcosmic Competition, Illusory Flowers and Water, and Fragmentation and Eternity", and incorporates modern elements such as multimedia, bringing a visual feast to visitors. The Imperial Kiln Factory was a kiln site established by the court in Jingdezhen during the Qing dynasty to make ceramics for the court. It was called "Taochang" in the Ming dynasty and renamed "Imperial Kiln Factory" in the Qing dynasty. The Ming and Qing Imperial Kiln Site was designed by Zhu Pei. Eight arches stretch into mountains, and several courtyards ripple into water. Jingdezhen "was born because of the kiln and flourished because of porcelain". People came from afar, built kilns on the mountain, built houses by the water, and worked for life. The shape of the building echoes this. Unlike Roman arches, it is not a simple geometric shape but a complex hyperbolic surface inspired by local wood kilns, hand-built with old kiln bricks, and rich in oriental colors. The building as a whole is humble and harmonious with the outside; the eight individual buildings are close and distant, virtual and real, and harmonious inside. Xu Zaien has a poem: "The water is deep and shallow in the east and west streams, and the clouds come and go in the distant mountains." A few points, artistic conception.
