Ceramics, in English, China. Westerners first knew China from Chinese ceramics. Since the 18th century, CHINA has been one of China's main nicknames.
The invention of Chinese pottery "began with Fuxi and Shennong, and the name of porcelain began in the Han Dynasty". A history of ceramics is a history of the development of Chinese culture, a microcosm of Chinese art and the long scientific path, and even a true reflection of social life, politics and economy.
Ceramics are both material products and spiritual wealth. They are outstanding achievements of the integration of earth and fire science and art, and they are also a culture that shines with the brilliance of thought.
The life of culture lies in innovation, and the life of ceramics also lies in innovation. From mud to pottery, from pottery to porcelain, and from the combination of white porcelain and celadon to blue-and-white porcelain, and then to colorful and dazzling colored porcelain, all of which demonstrate the great creative power and innovative spirit of the Chinese nation.
Fanchang Kiln in Wuhu City is currently the best-preserved historical and cultural relic of ancient ceramics in my country. A large number of archaeological excavations and scientific research results have proved that as early as the Five Dynasties period more than 1,000 years ago, Fanchang Kiln had become the earliest tribute kiln in southern my country to fire white porcelain, invented and fired the earliest blue-and-white porcelain utensils in my country, and ceramic production and production formed a considerable scale.
In fact, for a long period of history before this, the smart and wise ancestors had already mastered this technology, which can be traced back to the Eurasian human ancestors 2.2-2.56 million years ago. They ignited the earliest civilization fire necessary for firing ceramics here.

The reason why Fanchang Kiln has not been forgotten by people after more than 880 years of disuse, but has become a permanent memory, inspiring people to keep moving forward, is the innovation of Fanchang Kiln. Faced with the unsatisfactory quality of local porcelain clay, the ancestors burst out with the wisdom of "binary formula", using the "one bowl and one box" firing method, and successfully fired blue-and-white porcelain 300 years earlier than the porcelain capital Jingdezhen Kiln, making people feel that innovation is the irrefutable truth of all things.
Fanchang Kiln not only belongs to Wuhu, but also to our great Chinese nation and all mankind, showing the great creative power and innovative spirit of the Chinese people to the world, and constantly promoting it.
The taste and characteristics of culture determine the unique style and demeanor of a city. Any city that can leave a deep impression in people's minds must be a city with unique cultural symbols. The cultural symbols of Fanchang Kiln make the city of Wuhu more charming in terms of urban character.
Let us take the innovative cultural values as a strong support, vigorously cultivate and improve the innovation and excellence capabilities of the whole society, and pass on the innovative cultural fire ignited by Fanchang Kiln like the Olympic torch relay, and never extinguish it.
