Looking fo
Looking for a hotel to drive away the fatigue of the day, near the Longchishan Bicycle Park, there is the Yixing Fence Garden Shenxushu Hotel, which integrates functions of ecological picking, Chashan fangfang, high-end pottery experience, room service, catering and other integrated service centers. Hotel. The hotel has prepared a variety of holiday tours, including making glutinous rice, digging spring bamboo shoots, tea experience, pottery experience, guqin experience, porcelain painting and other activities. The pottery experience is located on the second floor of the hotel, and is a pottery maker with the founder of the Cultural Center, Xie Zuozhou. The tools in the position are neatly arranged, and the clean and bright production environment makes me like it at first sight. The strength of the tapping, the strength of the hand, are to control the strength. Don't be too heavy or too light.
The production of a purple sand basically takes about a week or even longer. It is a so-called one minute on the stage and ten years of work. The difficulty in making purple sand is beyond my imagination. Success is not a whim during the three days of fishing, nor is it a half-way and swearing slogan in the two-day net. It is the accumulation of bit by day, it is a continuous continuation. May we all be diligent in life.
