Why Tang Culture Matters in Xi’an
During the Tang dynasty, Chang’an was one of the world’s largest and most internationally connected cities. Its culture was shaped by people, ideas, religions, art, and trade from across Asia and beyond.
Today, traces of Tang culture can still be experienced through museums, historic sites, performances, food, architecture, and traditional experiences.
