Known as one of the most important cities in Chinese history, Xi’an is defined as the cradle of Chinese civilization, as it was the capital of thirteen dynasties. A city with more than 3,100 years of history, it also represents the easternmost end of the Silk Road and has been a model of urban planning for several historical eastern capitals. A city rich in history like Xi’an is the result of a stratified accumulation of traces left over time, a whole that carries multiple meanings of memories, perceptible in the fragments, in the traces and in the voids that require interpretations and new meanings.
