Zibo attracts global visitors with artistic heritage
As the most popular barbecue hotspot in China, Zibo was one of the early inventors of ceramics, dating back over 10,000 years to the early Neolithic Age. Its glaze culture also boasts a long history, dating back to the Han Dynasty (206 BC-AD 220).
The expo currently being held is Zibo's largest and most comprehensive ceramics exhibition, featuring one main venue and five branch venues that span a combined 900,000 square meters.
"Attending the exposition was like stepping into a global mosaic of ceramic artistry. What struck me the most was the cultural flavor of the event. I felt the expo exemplified the potential of ceramics, to unite people as it acts as a conduit for cultural exchange, mutual understanding, and global unity," said Douglas Dueno, a foreign expert at the China Daily Website.
