As a Cantonese who eats all over the world, tirelessly on the road to eating! On this day, I came to an ancient bakery in Hangzhou to explore the ancient taste of the Song Dynasty!
Ceramic cookies are said to occupy a very important position in Chinese history, and China also means ceramics in addition to China, which shows how inseparable ceramic cookies are from China! China used to sell cookies to make a fortune around the world! <(￣ˇ￣) /
It is said that Hangzhou has retained a bakery that was left over from the Song Dynasty, and me is here now! This bakery is named Southern Song Dynasty Government Kiln Museum(南宋官窯博物館). It is located in the south of Hangzhou. If you can choose to ride a bicycle near the West Lake, I believe it is definitely faster than taking the bus! (Hangzhou's public transportation really can't compliment!)
This is the first special museum of ceramic cookies in China, and its architecture is dominated by the Song Dynasty style! The museum is very large, and you can see the whole process from soil extraction to baking forming! And this museum is really the site of the official kiln production more than 800 years ago. Imagine the ghost of the ancients shuttled through the museum after nightfall, staged the work scene 800 years ago year after year, day after day ...

Decorated ceramic cookies can't be put into the oven immediately, they need to be air-dried, and then they can be baked in this long oven. After 10 hours to 1 day(base on different cookie), the fragrant ceramic cookies are finished!
There are also 7*24 singing and dancing performances in the bakery, especially at night, there will more active!
