Have you ever dreamed of walking inside history? Now, thanks to groundbreaking tech, you can! 😲
Through cutting-edge digital technology, the Mogao Grottoes in the northwest of the Chinese mainland are shining in a whole new light. Digital Dunhuang is turning these ancient caves into an interactive playground with:
- VR immersive tours that let you explore every mural up close 🎨
- A virtual library to dive into philosophical wisdom 📚
- A 360° dome theater experience that transports you to the Silk Road era 🌌
As Professor Zheng Chengjun, vice president of Beijing International Studies University, explains, "The Digital Dunhuang Library has shifted the Western narrative's one-sided understanding of Dunhuang. To restore Dunhuang's true origins, we should use our own discourse system to interpret it."
Join CGTN's Zang Shijie on a journey where ancient art meets future tech, and discover how Digital Dunhuang is reshaping cultural narratives for a global audience. Ready to dive in? 🚀
