Description:

Follow a young bookworm and a Persian cat as they relive Zhang Qian’s epic journey – braving the Xiongnu, seeking the Yellow River’s source and bringing exotic wonders east. His story, intertwined with young heroes like Emperor Han Wudi and Huo Qubing, reflects youth shaping a nation's destiny. The play blends poetry, guqin and traditional culture, linking ancient dreams to modern visions. From the Silk Road’s origins to today’s Belt and Road, it celebrates China’s ongoing role in global connection and cooperation.
