High-speed train reaches in just 22min! Not Jingdezhen, but the lesser-known 'Capital of Porcelain'

Due to the vastness of our country and its extensive territory, we have a wealth of tourist resources. For tourists who are unsure where to go, here is a place I recommend. It's the lesser-known 'Capital of Porcelain', accessible by high-speed train in just 22min! And it's not Jingdezhen. Curious friends might ask, where exactly is this place? What different landscapes does it offer? With these questions and curiosity in mind, let's talk today about the stories of Liling City. Liling City, a county-level city under the jurisdiction of Hunan Province, is managed by Zhuzhou City. The name Liling dates back to the Qin dynasty, with the county established during the Eastern Han dynasty, and in 1985, the State Council approved the establishment of the county-level Liling City. Liling is famous both domestically and internationally for its ceramics and fireworks. Moreover, it is worth mentioning that Liling City is not only the original production site of underglaze polychrome porcelain in the world and the location of China's 'National Porcelain' and 'Hongguan Kiln', but also the hometown of Li Tian, the master of fireworks, as well as being known as the 'Capital of Ceramics in China' and the 'Capital of Fireworks in China'. With the arrival of spring and blooming flowers, it's the season for spring outings! To visit Liling, just take a 22-minute high-speed train from Changsha, allowing for a smooth day trip without the need for a car.
