Jingdezhen
Porcelain has defined Jingdezhen for at least a thousand years, earning this Jiangxi city its reputation as China's ceramics capital. During the Ming and Qing dynasties it ranked among the country's four great towns, and its wares were long considered the finest in China. Today the city draws pottery students and working artists alongside tourists, and supports an active workshop and education scene alongside its historic kilns.
