Zibo attracts global visitors with artistic heritage

A delegation of expats from multiple countries including Britain, Canada, the United States and Egypt delved into the artistic aspect of Zibo city in East China's Shandong province on Sept 10 at the ongoing 23rd China (Zibo) International Ceramics Exposition.

This immersive cultural exploration provided the expats with insights not only into the local ceramics but also the exquisite artistry from China's nine key ceramics and glaze producing areas as well as masterpieces from 12 countries and regions, including Britain and Russia. 

They also had hands-on experience with neihua, a form of interior painting that requires artists to use a special bamboo pen with a hook-tipped brush inside a glass container with a small opening.
