On these great thoroughfares the essential factors of production, such as capital, technology, and manpower flowed freely, with sharing of goods, resources and achievements. Important cities such as Almaty, Samarkand and Changan, along with great ports like Sur and Guangzhou flourished, while the Roman, the Arsacid and the Kushan civilisations prospered and China was enjoying the high point of its civilisation in the Han and Tang dynasties. The old Silk Road created great regional development and prosperity.

Peaceful cooperation. In the Han Dynasty, before 140BC, a peaceful delegation set forth from Changan, and started to open up a road from the East to the West, completing a journey of pioneership, the renowned diplomatic mission to the Western regions undertaken by Zhang Qian.

And what kind of atmosphere is given off by lines from Liu Yong such as, "Trotting slowly on horseback on the ancient streets of Chang'An, with cicadas calling from the tall willows lining the street" and "Passing by many beautiful cliffs along the ravine, into the deepest depths of the river. The roar of the river gradually calms, and a good wind happens to rise, now I hear again the merchants and travelers calling to one another. The sails hoisted high."? In the first half of the ci with the line "a riverbank covered in willow trees with the cold breeze before the dawn" is the line "The evening clouds and mist have gradually gotten thicker, and the sky over Chu is vast and open!". Who can say that this is feminine?

I live near Changan Street. Do you know where the Citibank is? My place is in the building to the left of the bank.

Xi'an was the capital of 13 Chinese dynasties. In the past, it was called Chang'an.
