More than 2,000 years ago, Zhang Qian, an outstanding envoy and explorer of the Western Han Dynasty, opened up the ancient Silk Road and brought reliable information about the western regions to China. Various cultures met in what is now modern-day Xinjiang, the heart of the Silk Road.

2023 marks the 10th anniversary of the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI). Over the past decade, the BRI has connected more than 150 countries through pragmatic cooperation. Recently, CGTN's Tian Wei has visited Xinjiang, meeting ordinary folks and their extraordinary stories. We discover the music, the history and the transformations of this crossroads of civilization. Here's a sneak peek at the journey, which will air as a CGTN special on October 16.
