Features: The Great Desert is a scroll recording the history of the Han and Tang dynasties, an epic of vastness. It is filled with legendary stories, profound philosophies, and surging poetic sentiments. Here, the flags of Zhang Qian's mission to the Western Regions once fluttered, the heroic posture of Ban Chao standing with a sword crossed at his side was left behind, and the footprints of Tang Sanzang's journey to the West were imprinted. In these historical footprints, we read the ancient Western Regions and witnessed the ancient civilization and splendor of the frontier. This book introduces the most renowned cultural relics and historical figures in the Xinjiang region. The author has a broad perspective and genuine emotions, artistically portraying the history of the West through elegant prose and images, with a strong sense of national identity, historical awareness, and cultural consciousness permeating every line.
