Imagine wandering through the winding lanes of Jingdezhen, known as the “millennium capital of porcelain,” and discovering more than just stunning ceramics! 🎨✨ That’s exactly the vibe North Macedonian Ambassador to China Sashko Nasev felt at the Global Mayors Dialogue in Jingdezhen, in the east of the Chinese mainland’s Jiangxi Province.
During his chat with CGTN’s Zhang Meng, Ambassador Nasev gave a big thumbs-up to the city’s efforts in boosting tourism and economic growth. “Jingdezhen is doing a very good job,” he said, praising the integration of tradition and modern development as “a good step moving forward.”
But the diplomat’s vision goes beyond porcelain sales. He’s teaming up with local authorities to spark vibrant cultural exchanges, linking North Macedonian students, writers, and artists with Jingdezhen’s creative community. From joint workshops to art residencies, the goal is to weave a tighter cultural web that benefits both sides. 🤝🇲🇰🇨🇳
For young travelers, entrepreneurs, and culture buffs, this partnership signals exciting opportunities: imagine diving into a hands-on porcelain workshop in Jingdezhen or hosting an art showcase in Skopje. It’s a fresh way to learn, create, and connect across continents.
As cultures converge over clay and creativity, the North Macedonian ambassador’s initiative spotlights the power of art to build bridges. Stay tuned for more updates on this cross-border collaboration that celebrates heritage, innovation, and friendship! 🌏🖌️
