Jingdezhen: A city carved by time

As mayors from the world's great ceramic cities gathered in Jingdezhen for the "Global Mayors Dialogue," CGTN's Zhang Meng discovers how the porcelain capital in east China's Jiangxi Province connects with cities across continents through the shared language of clay and fire.

From Türkiye's Iznik to Italy's Faenza, she listened as mayors explored what it means to keep a city alive, and how cultural diversity works between different civilizations. In studios where young artists reinterpret ancient forms, and in kilns where modern designs meet ancestral techniques, Jingdezhen reveals its secret of lasting charm and will continue writing its thousand-year story through every piece it creates.
