Five years ago, with the launch of the Belt and Road Initiative, Dunhuang once again became the focus of the Silk Road, and more tourists began to visit Dunhuang.

Zhang says that the focus on Dunhuang will help awaken the common memory of the countries along the ancient Belt and Road route.

The story is compiled by Zhu Xingxin and translated by Zhang Lei.
