A contemporary artist honors Silk Road traditions in her scarf designs, report Huo Yan in Xi'an and Li Yang in Beijing.
Fan Yanyan is so intrigued by the Silk Road that she established her silk-scarf design studio in a Silk Road museum in Xi'an, Shaanxi province.
The museum's location in Northwest China was the largest market in the capital of the Tang Dynasty (618-907). It's celebrated as the traditional starting point of the Silk Road.
