Summer holiday is just around the corner. It is time for you to plan for your family trip. How about following the footsteps of Marco Polo to explore the mysterious Silk Road?
Silk Road is an ancient trade route between the East and the West 2,000 years ago and it was once a vital gateway for cultural exchange. In Xian, the starting point of Silk Road, visit the amazing Terracotta Warriors and the Big Goose Pagoda to experience the glittering glory of a bygone era; In Dunhuang, Mogao Caves show you the ancient art and the importance of Buddhism of the time, while the tinkle of the bells from the camels leads you to the Mingsha Sand Dunes and Crescent Moon Spring; In Urumqi and Turpan, you will be amazed by the ethnic cultures. The Heavenly Mountain and Heavenly Lake, the Flaming Mountain, the ancient cities of Jiaohe and Gaochang not only display the beautiful landscapes, but also unveil the important role of Xinjiang on Chinese history and cultural exchange between the East and the West.
Besides the amazing scenery, savouring local seasonal fruit like Hami melon, water melon, and the world-renowned Xinjiang grapes is definitely a must-do in your Silk Road trip.
Silk Road is a living history book. This summer, experience up-close the cradle of this 2,000-year historical trade route with your kids and enjoy an extraordinary family trip!
