Jiangxi

Mountains surround Jiangxi Province, with the Gan River flowing through its center and Lake Poyang, China's largest freshwater lake, in the south.

The province gained strategic importance during the Tang Dynasty in 733 when it became part of the Jiangnanxi Circuit, connecting maritime trade from Guangdong to the Grand Canal.

The city of Jingdezhen maintains its 1,800-year tradition of producing fine porcelain, continuing the craft that made it the imperial manufacturing center during the Song Dynasty.

Jiangxi Province experiences a subtropical climate with temperatures ranging from 16 to 20 degrees Celsius, making spring and autumn the preferred seasons for visitors.

The White Deer Grotto Academy, where philosopher Zhu Xi taught during the Song Dynasty, remains an educational institution near Mount Lu.
