9. Yaoli Town

The ancient town of Yaoli in Jiangxi province is perhaps less known compared to Jingdezhen, the "ceramics capital of China". However, it's a place with a rich history, plenty of traditional buildings and beautiful landscapes, and the locals still live in harmony with nature.

If you go: Yaoli is 51 km from Jingdezhen city, and buses travel between the two every day. Visitors can first get to Jingdezhen, which is linked to big cities including Beijing and Shanghai by railways, expressways and flights.
