Oil town Yumen to woo tourists

LANZHOU - Since 2015, Li Na, 26, has been working as a painted-pottery maker at a cultural center in the northwestern Chinese city of Yumen.

Li had no hesitation to go back to her hometown Yumen in Gansu province, after studying sculpture at a university in central China's Henan province for four years.

"Yumen is famous for its painted-pottery culture. I am happy to become a pottery maker in my hometown," Li said.
