While the exhibits at Nanchang Porcelain Painting Museum in suburban Nanchang in East China's Jiangxi province may impress each visitor with their elegance, they are also likely to evoke childhood memories among many visitors, especially the elderly.
The museum is dedicated to porcelain painting - a rare craft that was popular in Nanchang and its surrounding regions at one time.
The museum, with a floor space of nearly 10,000 square meters, was built with government funding and opened in 2013, aimed at integrating the exhibition, creation, research and collection of painted porcelain art, which was named by the Ministry of Culture as a national intangible cultural heritage in 2008.
