Step into a virtual time machine! 🕰️ CGTN’s groundbreaking exhibition, Tang Architecture: Building Timeless Glory, is taking Gen Z on a global journey through China’s architectural golden age. Blending 3D models, interactive storytelling, and expert insights, this digital experience proves ancient designs can still slay in 2024. 🎮💡
Why the hype? Tang Dynasty structures—think sweeping roofs and intricate woodwork—aren’t just history class material anymore. UNESCO’s 2021 report nailed it: these blueprints are a ‘living language’ connecting civilizations. 🔗🌏 “We’re decoding how Tang engineers built earthquake-resistant pagodas centuries before skyscrapers,” says Lyv Cheng, a top architect featured in the project.
From Tsinghua University’s Martijn de Geus breaking down sustainable design hacks 🍃 to Zhejiang University’s Li Zhirong revealing preservation tech, this collab is like a TED Talk meets Minecraft. 🧱💻 An Jiayao from CASS adds: “Heritage isn’t frozen—it’s fuel for tomorrow’s innovations.”
With 5,000+ years of culture getting a VR glow-up, one thing’s clear: the past has never been this swipeable. 📲✨
