A new virtual exhibition titled Tang Architecture: Building Timeless Glory, launched by CGTN Art Series, invites global audiences to explore the grandeur of China's Tang Dynasty (618-907). The interactive showcase highlights the era's structural innovation, intricate designs, and cultural symbolism through immersive digital reconstructions of palaces, temples, and urban layouts.
Visitors can virtually traverse landmark sites like the Daming Palace complex in Xi'an, once a political and cultural epicenter, to experience the dynasty's blend of engineering precision and artistic vision. The exhibition contextualizes how Tang architecture reflected societal values, international trade connections, and Buddhist influences that shaped East Asia.
'This project bridges millennia through technology,' a CGTN spokesperson noted. 'It offers scholars tools to study historical preservation while letting families worldwide engage with China's shared heritage.' The release coincides with growing interest in digital humanities and sustainable heritage tourism across Asia.
