West Market Ruins

❤ Recommended reason: The Silk Road, which stretches for tens of thousands of miles and has been in existence for thousands of years, was opened by Zhang Qian in the Han Dynasty. By the Tang Dynasty, its starting point had moved to the West Market and its surrounding areas. 🌟 Highlights: In 2010, the Tang West Market Museum was built on the site of the Tang West Market. Inside the museum, there is a glass-floored exhibition hall, with the excavated ruins under the glass. Further on, there is an open exhibition area, which displays the northeast cross street, the intersection of East Street and North Street in the West Market, and a stone bridge ruin excavated on the north side of the northeast cross street in the West Market. 👍 Most recommended: The Tang West Market was described by Ban Gu as "people cannot look back, and cars cannot turn around." The market in the Tang Dynasty was more prosperous than that in the Han Dynasty, with more than 40,000 fixed shops. 📝 Tips: Museum ticket: CNY 60
