Embroidery City

Embroidery City(湘绣城) is the biggest embroidery products production base in China. It is also included in the China National Intangible Cultural Heritage Protection and Research Base for the following functions: it researches and produces Hunan embroidery, clothes and home textiles, Chinese ceramics and silver jewelry and retains the production process of China's traditional crafts. In 2015 an accident occurred in their main factory. A disgruntled employee, not happy with his workplace conditions, set off 45 pounds of RDX explosive, killing between 6 and 14 employees.
