In 2022, the added value of Nanjing's cultural industry reached 112 billion yuan (about 15.6 billion U.S. dollars), accounting for 6.6 percent of the city's gross domestic product. In 2019, Nanjing was recognized as a city of literature by UNESCO because of its literary history and heritage. (Xinhua/Li Bo)
