Yaoli was a really beautiful and old Chinese town. It seemed as if the town didn’t have any running water because people were doing laundry and washing dishes in the river. This was my first glimpse into the true Chinese countryside and it was cool to see what people lived like outside of the city. We walked around for some time and then an enormous group of Chinese tourists showed up. They epitomized a lot of stereotypes of Chinese tourists and were fun to watch.
After lunch, we visited Tianbao, where there is a 70 meter dragon kiln and tianbao clay is made. The studio there produced enormous wood-fired jars and they fired the kiln up to five times in one year.
