The capital of Jun porcelain, a living ancient town "Shenhou Ancient Town"

🚗Transportation: It is recommended to drive by yourself, which takes about 1 hour from the city center and the scenery along the way is also beautiful. I would like to remind everyone that there may be a lot of people on holidays or weekends, and it may be inconvenient to drive in. You can park your car on the road about one thousand meters away from the ancient town. This way, you can walk and look around quickly[!] [Rainbow]Culture: Xuchang Shenhou Ancient Town is the production and distribution center of Jun porcelain, the first of the five famous porcelains in China, and is known as a famous historical and cultural town in China. It was first built in the Song Dynasty and rebuilt in the eighth year of Hongzhi in the Ming Dynasty. It was once famous for being attacked by four wasps. The porcelain fired here is said to be more valuable than gold, and the kiln fire has been burning for thousands of years. Walking in the old street, you will see carved beams and painted buildings, blue bricks and tiles. Different from the commercial atmosphere of other ancient towns, this place is full of historical heritage mixed with the atmosphere of modern life. Jun porcelain from Shenhou flourished in the Tang Dynasty and prospered in the Song Dynasty. During the reign of Emperor Huizong of Song, it was designated as a royal treasure. Jun porcelain goes into the kiln in one color and comes out in a variety of colors. Its ever-changing colors drive porcelain lovers crazy. Hou Ancient Town is world-famous for its Jun porcelain, which has a reputation of "gold has a price, but Jun is priceless" and "a piece of Jun porcelain is worth a million dollars". Walk into each Jun porcelain workshop, watch the craftsmen skillfully throwing, glazing and firing, and feel the unique charm of Jun porcelain. Every piece of Jun porcelain is unique because during the firing process, "it goes into the kiln in one color, and comes out of the kiln in a myriad of colors." This magical kiln change makes every piece of Jun porcelain full of surprises.
