Elizabeth Chin, executive director, New York PATA, delivered a speech on the wonders of Jiangsu in sharing a better life. Jiangsu is well known for its renowned handicrafts, such as embroidered brocade from Suzhou, clay teapots from Yixing, lacquer ware from Yangzhou, and clay-figurines from Wuxi. Yet one of the major draws to Jiangsu has always been its stunning natural scenery and beautiful canals. Jiangsu stands out as the only province in China to boast major rivers, vast lakes, and access to the sea.

On this ancient yet vibrant land, water and culture reflect each other magnificently, and humans coexist harmoniously with nature," Li Chuan, deputy director of Jiangsu Provincial Department of Culture and Tourism, said at the opening ceremony through video. "We eagerly invite you to Jiangsu to experience its scenic beauty, rich flavors and vibrant culture, and to discover even more," Li said.
