Guangzhou: Day Tour of Lingnan Garden & Pottery DIY

Discover Foshan's cultural treasures on a day trip from Guangzhou. Visit Qinghui Garden, explore the Nanfeng Ancient Kiln, and enjoy a hands-on pottery-making experience.
Begin your journey with a scenic one-hour drive from Guangzhou to the Shunde District of Foshan. Your first stop is Qinghui Garden, a renowned site originally established during the Ming Dynasty and celebrated as one of the "Four Famous Gardens of Lingnan."

Stroll along the garden paths to gain a deeper appreciation of the unique local Lingnan garden culture, capturing photographs of traditional Chinese courtyards that exude profound historical depth and timeless charm.

Next, head to Shiwan Town to visit the famous Nanfeng Ancient Kiln. This world-renowned site is a 500-year-old "living dragon kiln" that remains operational to this day, continuously used for firing ceramics. Observe the ancient kiln structure up close and delve into the long and storied history of Shiwan ceramics—the very birthplace of China's celebrated Shiwan pottery culture.

The highlight of the entire itinerary is undoubtedly the hands-on pottery-making experience under expert guidance. Local master potters will provide step-by-step instruction on kneading clay, wheel throwing, shaping, and basic painting techniques. Create your own unique, personalized ceramic artwork; once completed, the pieces will be fired in the kiln, and the finished products will be presented to you as exclusive travel souvenirs to take home and cherish.

Finally, take a leisurely stroll through Shiwan Doll Street, located right next to the Nanfeng Ancient Kiln. This historic commercial street, dating back over a century, is lined with traditional ceramic workshops and pottery shops where craftsmanship has been passed down through generations.

Admire a diverse array of lifelike Shiwan figurines (ceramic sculptures), exquisite handcrafted ceramic ornaments, and practical daily-use porcelain, all while immersing yourself in the rich atmosphere of local folk ceramic culture. You will also have ample free time to browse at your leisure and select your favorite ceramic handicrafts to take home as souvenirs.
