25 May 2010




Morning. Yingge Ceramic museum.
The museum was built in 2000 to preserve and promote ceramic usage as well as upgrade existing ceramic technology. It also promotes ceramics as an art and conduct surveys. Of course, the museum collects ceramics of all sorts and keeps them in good condition. By and large it is there to induce awareness to the public of the importance of ceramics in the past and the time to come. The museum also features a ceramic studio to encourage tourist to get in touch with ceramics themselves.

The design included louvered ceilings, which create striped natural light on the beton brut columns. These lines act to strengthen the line designs of the balustrades. These array of horizontal and vertical lines of similar volume creates an interesting space of stripes amidst a huge space. Best of all, the huge building uses approximately less than 25% artificial lighting.

Bought a few souvenirs!

Then we went on the YZ university(forgot the name). Saw their facilities as a wealthy private U. Very impressive. They had cutting-edge machinery which one of the units could equal years of our school fees. And their school fees do not even come close to half of ours. Now i wonder where all our money went.

Then off we went to a Lao Jie, old street selling stuffs of all sorts. I got myself a crossbow, and finally found some guli fizz drink. 弹珠汽水。Then we went to a Temple and learn a gazillion things there. Including entering a temple by its left entrance and exiting via its right, the construction, ornamentation depths and such and such. Ref to vid.

Then we moved our luggage to cycu, and slept our last at our park hotel.

Tomorrow, An ping, Tai Nan
