Huwei Ceramic Village Introduction
Beside the Miaoli County Highway 48, there is a red brick house with an outdoor garden filled with colorful wish wind chimes. Every time the mountain breeze visits, the clear, melodious sounds of the chimes resonate, seemingly greeting the wind and welcoming every friend who visits "Hui Gu Tao Yi"—yes, this romantic and delightful place covers an area of more than 2,000 ping. Hui Gu Tao Yi was co-founded by the couple Dai Zhi Ting and Chen Yi Zi. Because Ms. Chen was once a ceramic painter in Yingge, many elegant blue and white porcelain pieces can be seen in the exhibition space of Hui Gu, ranging from early hand-painted pieces to pottery creations. Hui Gu Tao Yi is one of the few kilns in Taiwan that possesses both pottery and porcelain production capabilities. Its modern pottery creations are quite popular among the public! For instance, the seasonal products for the Tung Flower Festival, whether tea sets or wall clocks, are elegantly designed, showcasing the beauty of the Tung flowers, making them hard to resist! In addition to exhibiting a variety of creatively designed pottery and porcelain, the park also opens up the kiln for observation and plans various DIY teaching activities, including painting wind chimes, tableware, tea sets, floral containers, as well as hand-building, slip casting, and clay modeling courses, all of which are rich and interesting, allowing visitors to fully enjoy the joy of creation in the world of intellectual pottery art.
