Huwei Pottery Village Introduction
Along the Miaoli County Route 48, there is a red brick house with an outdoor garden adorned with colorful wish bells. Whenever the mountain breeze visits, the clear ringing sounds chime melodiously, as if greeting the mountain wind and welcoming every friend who visits "Hui Gu Tao Yi"—indeed, this romantic and joyous place spans over 2,000 pings (approximately 6,600 square meters). Hui Gu Tao Yi was co-created by a couple, Dai Zhi-Ting and Chen Yi-Tzu. Due to Mr. Chen's background as a ceramic painter from Yingge, the exhibition space at Hui Gu showcases numerous elegant blue and white porcelain pieces, ranging from early hand-painted porcelain to ceramic art creations. It is one of the few kilns in Taiwan that possesses both pottery and porcelain manufacturing capabilities. The modern ceramic art creations are quite popular among the public! For instance, during the Tung flower season, there is a series of products including tea sets and wall clocks, with elegant and simple designs that beautifully showcase the charm of the Tung flowers, making them hard to resist! In addition to displaying various creatively designed pottery and porcelain items, the park also offers kiln observation and plans various DIY teaching activities. These include painting wind bells, tableware, tea sets, and flower vessels, as well as courses on hand-throwing, slip casting, and clay modeling. It's a rich and enjoyable experience that allows visitors to fully indulge in the joy of creation and immerse themselves in the intellectual world of ceramic art.
