CGTN now unveils an immersive and interactive virtual exhibition, "Tang Architecture: Building Timeless Glory," that invites global audiences on an unforgettable journey into the artistic achievements of the Tang Dynasty (618-907).
This dynamic exhibition blends state-of-the-art XR displays, captivating animations, and in-depth expert interviews to bring ancient architectural marvels to life. The program features renowned experts such as Wang Yongxian, affectionately known as "Dougong Grandpa," former director of ancient architecture management at Shanxi Provincial Cultural Heritage Administration; Geng Shuo, associate professor at the Central Academy of Fine Arts; Martijn de Geus, a Dutch architect and associate professor at Tsinghua University; and CGTN's Yang Di.
By merging traditional Chinese craftsmanship with modern digital innovation, the exhibition offers a fresh perspective on historical construction techniques and sustainable design practices. It is a must-see experience for young global citizens, tech enthusiasts, cultural explorers, and creative minds around the world.
This virtual journey not only celebrates the enduring legacy of the Tang Dynasty but also opens new avenues for understanding how ancient art and modern technology can coalesce into a vibrant, interactive cultural experience.
