How a foreign visitor actually books it

Reserve at least a day ahead — the scenic area asks visitors to book in advance through the official 南风古灶旅游区 WeChat official account (or by phone), and a passport works as your real-name ID. There's no reliable English booking flow, so have your hotel help with the Chinese account if needed.

What else to know

We link no official booking page here — the verified route is the 南风古灶旅游区 WeChat official account plus phone booking, not a clean web deep link. A 4A scenic area in the Shiwan ceramics district of Chancheng, built around a 500-year-old, still-firing dragon kiln — one of the oldest continuously working kilns in the world — with potteries, ceramic streets and hands-on clay workshops. Adult admission is roughly ¥25 (you'll see lower concession and member prices quoted); confirm the current figure when you book. Metro-accessible in the Shiwan area.

If the official channel does not work

Do not assume an unrecorded booking route is available. Recheck the operator’s current instructions; where the interface itself is the obstacle, the practical mechanics are in buying tickets the official way and booking without WeChat.
