宜春：产业与山水相遇

Welcome to Yichun, a city in western Jiangxi where modern industry grows beside mountains, forests, and hot springs.

欢迎来到宜春。这座江西西部的城市，让现代产业与山峦、森林和温泉相伴生长。

To understand Yichun today, follow two connected stories: how it makes things, and how it welcomes visitors.

要认识今天的宜春，可以沿着两条相连的故事线：它如何发展制造业，又如何迎接游客。

The first story begins with lithium, a metal used in rechargeable batteries, electric vehicles, and energy storage systems.

第一条故事线从锂开始。锂被用于充电电池、电动汽车和储能系统。

New energy and new materials have become Yichun's leading industry.

新能源和新材料已经成为宜春的首位产业。

A 2026 government report said the sector's full-chain revenue passed 108 billion yuan in 2025.

一份 2026 年的政府产业报告显示，2025 年这条全产业链的营收超过 1080 亿元人民币。

The chain covers lithium salts, battery materials, cells, storage products, practical applications, and recycling.

这条产业链覆盖锂盐、电池材料、电芯、储能产品、应用场景以及回收利用。

So Yichun is working beyond the first step of taking minerals from the ground.

因此，宜春的发展并不止于从地下开采矿产这一步。

It is creating more value through research, cleaner production, digital management, and material recovery.

它还通过研发、清洁生产、数字化管理和材料回收创造更多价值。

The industry still faces changing lithium prices and the need to protect water, land, and other resources.

与此同时，这个行业仍要面对锂价波动，以及保护水、土地和其他资源的需要。

Those challenges make careful planning and greener technology especially important.

这些挑战让审慎规划和绿色技术显得尤为重要。

Yichun's economy is not built on lithium alone.

宜春的经济并不只依靠锂产业。

Fengcheng has a circular-economy base, while Gao'an is known for architectural ceramics and smarter production.

丰城拥有循环经济产业基础，高安则以建筑陶瓷和生产智能化升级见长。

In Zhangshu and Yuanzhou, traditional Chinese medicine and modern biomedicine form another important cluster.

在樟树和袁州，中医药与现代生物医药形成了另一个重要产业集群。

Together, these industries combine traditional strengths with newer technologies.

这些产业共同展现了传统优势与新技术的结合。

The second story begins outside the factory gates.

第二条故事线从工厂大门之外开始。

Part of the Wugongshan UNESCO Global Geopark lies in Yichun, and it received UNESCO recognition in 2024.

武功山联合国教科文组织世界地质公园的一部分位于宜春，并于 2024 年获得联合国教科文组织认定。

Its landscapes include granite formations, high mountain meadows, waterfalls, forests, and natural hot springs.

这里的景观包括花岗岩地貌、高山草甸、瀑布、森林和天然温泉。

Around Mingyue Mountain and Wentang, visitors can walk through bamboo forests, enjoy mountain views, and relax in hot-spring resorts.

在明月山和温汤一带，游客可以漫步竹林、欣赏山景，也可以在温泉度假区放松身心。

Hotels, guesthouses, shopping streets, and evening performances can turn a day trip into a longer stay.

Nature is only one layer of the journey.

自然风光只是这段旅程的一层。

The wider Wugongshan area carries Chan Buddhist heritage, tea-picking opera, and traditional Nuo mask carving.

更广阔的武功山地区还承载着禅宗文化、采茶戏和传统傩面具雕刻技艺。

These traditions show how local communities understand mountains, seasons, work, and celebration.

这些传统让人看到当地社区如何理解山川、时节、劳作与庆典。

Industrial parks and mountain resorts look different, but both ask how local resources can create lasting value.

产业园区与山地度假区看起来截然不同，但它们都在回答同一个问题：本地资源如何创造长久价值？

For Yichun, the answer is being written in workshops, research labs, hot-spring towns, forest paths, and everyday life.

对宜春来说，答案正写在车间、实验室、温泉小镇、森林步道以及日常生活之中。
