This is the Silk Road
CXO Cultural Talk "This is the Silk Road"

Although the "Silk Road" is a household name, a stereotype concept cannot escape when mentioned. As a transportation route, where did the Silk Road lead? How does it cross plains, rivers, plateaus, snow-capped mountains, and grasslands, finally complete its mission of connecting the East and the West?

Based on the interpretations and research of classic records and modern explorers, Professor HOU Yangfang from the Institute of Chinese Historical Geography at Fudan University spent ten years, more than 20 times, and traveled a total of 30,000 km to restore many ancient Silk Roads at home and abroad, including Zhang Qian's route to the Western Regions and Xuanzang's pilgrimage.

This lecture is a record of his restoration of the Silk Road. We will follow his footsteps through 200 photos to visit the authentic "Silk Road", truly explore classic routes and landmarks, and reunite with the pioneers who have traveled on the Silk Road for thousands of years across time and space.
