In the quiet village of Xinping, Jingdezhen, a series of earth-toned palaces rise from the landscape. These structures are not built of steel or brick, but of a lifetime of devotion.

The visionary behind them is master artisan Yu Ermei, who channeled decades of savings and a vast collection of porcelain – bowls, plates, and tiles – into a monumental labor of love.

What began as a singular dream has blossomed into a sprawling ceramic complex, with every surface adorned by hand. To walk these halls is to traverse a living mosaic of history. Today, the Porcelain Palace serves as both a cultural destination and a permanent testament to the craft, ensuring that the legacy of the world's porcelain capital endures.
