We’re continuing our journey along the ancient Silk Road — this time with a fascinating detour to the Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region, and specifically to Guyuan, a historic stronghold that once served as a strategic Silk Road outpost and a fortified barrier against invasions from the north.
Our adventure begins in Pingliang County, Gansu Province, before crossing into Ningxia. Along the way, we encounter warm, welcoming people, a remarkable diversity of cultures, religions, and flavors, and stories that echo through centuries of trade and conflict.
Join us as we trace the Silk Road’s lesser-known paths — through ancient cities, stunning landscapes, and a rich tapestry of tradition 🎬
