China Ceramics Museum is normally closed on Monday. Use the day for workshops, old-city streets and confirmed open districts, then reserve major collections for Tuesday.
Do not make Monday a museum day
China Ceramics Museum officially opens Tuesday–Sunday, with possible statutory-holiday changes. Check the Imperial Kiln Museum and every other venue separately; one museum's hours cannot be applied to all.
Reserve wheel throwing, hand-building or underglaze painting for Monday morning, confirming materials, firing, shipping and cancellation. Use the afternoon for public old-city lanes, then verify Taoxichuan or market opening for evening.
Book Tuesday in advance
For China Ceramics Museum on Tuesday, use its only official mini-program, save confirmation and carry the matching document. Passport, child and group verification should be checked with the museum before travel.
Do not compensate by racing through several rural sites. Give Yaoli, Fuliang or Gaoling a separate day after checking roads and weather.
Using a car and guide
A Monday plan depends on timed workshops and transfers. Put vehicle type, qualification, cost and pickup points in writing; record guide language, hours, scope and no-shopping terms.
Chinese, English, French, Spanish, Russian, Japanese and Korean may be arranged early. A closure should trigger the agreed alternative, not a forced shop stop.
