Jingdezhen, April 4th – 5th, 2008
Oil Vegetable Flowers, i.e. 油菜花; a.k.a. Brassica campestris or rape blossoms.
Jingdezhen remains a very important city in the history of ceramic production, at first serving imperial consumption and now catering for China and the world. Yejun and I arrived at Jingdezhen in the evening to meet his high school classmate; they had not seen each other for the last ten over years and since they all graduated from high school and universities. We all chatted heartily during the sumptuous dinner, all local cuisine I had never had before.
It rained over night and quite heavily. We left Jingdezhen during early dawn hour. Skipping to check out the city and instead we headed for Poyang, home of Yejun's childhood and adolescent years.
