Jingdezhen, China's capital of porcelain-making industry, used to be known as Changnan and Xinping. During the Jingde reign (1004-1007) of the Song, the quality porcelains made by local artisans drew the attention of Emperor Zhenzong, who designated them for imperial use and had the wording "Made during the Jingde Reign" printed on the bottom of every piece of porcelain made there. Hence the name, Jingdezhen. A 1,700-year-old history in the making of porcelain has pockmarked the land of he city with ancient kilns, and nurtured a distinctive folklore. A visit to the place never fails to become a most rewarding experience.
