Xi says Jingdezhen World Heritage listing speaks to China’s commitment to preserving cultural legacy
President Xi Jinping’s approach is reflected in China’s World Heritage inscriptions, including the 5,000-year-old Archaeological Ruins of Liangzhu City, which provide evidence of an early Chinese civilisation; Beijing’s 700-year-old Central Axis, an enduring expression of traditional urban planning; and the Xixia Imperial Tombs, a vast burial complex that bears witness to cultural exchanges and integration along the Silk Roads from the 11th to 13th centuries.
