Jingdezhen, dubbed the porcelain capital of China, is opening its doors to the world with a more inclusive and innovative approach, accelerating its efforts to become a creative hub that attracts international ceramic artists and foreign tourists, said Hu Xuemei, Party secretary of Jingdezhen and a deputy to the 14th National People's Congress.

With a pottery history spanning more than 2,000 years, an official kiln history lasting over 1,000 years and a legacy of imperial kilns extending more than 600 years, Jingdezhen, a city in Jiangxi province, possesses one of the richest and most remarkable ceramic cultural heritages in the world, making it a major draw for visitors.
