East Asia City of Culture
Quanzhou, located on the southeast coast of Fujian province facing the Taiwan Strait, was crowned "East Asia City of Culture" in 2013. Quanzhou is an important harbor and the starting point of the Maritime Silk Road. It is the ancestral home of many overseas Chinese. During 2014, Quanzhou signed cooperation agreements with many countries in Africa for deeper exchanges and cooperation in economy, trade, culture, and other areas.
The 2015 “Culture City of East Asia” was declared at the 6th China-Japan-South Korea Ministerial Conference on Culture, with China’s Qingdao, Japan’s Niigata and South Korea’s Cheongju sharing the title.
