The overland Silk Road is the “highlight” of “reading without boundaries”. Since 2013, Duxing Wujiang Studio began to design and implement related projects, leading children and parents every year to start their journey from Luoyang or Xi’an.
Ding Yanji came to Dunhuang dozens of times. Zhang Qian walked this road, Wei Qing, Huo Qubing, Li Guang, Ban Chao, business travelers and monks.
