The Silk Road was opened by Zhang Qian, a native of Gansu and Emperor Wu of Han Dynasty. At first, Liu Che, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, made Zhang Qian contact with the western regions and more countries to fight against nomadic people, so this road opened a safe passage for the trade and cultural exchanges between the Han Dynasty and western countries and even Europe and America. Since it was developed in the Western Han Dynasty, the eastern starting point of China Silk Road should be Chang 'an, the capital of Beijing in the Han Dynasty. Chang 'an is the eastern starting point of China Silk Road, which has become a global consensus. Liu Che, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, could not let Zhang Qian set the starting point of the Silk Road in Luoyang. Zhang Qian himself considered Chang 'an, because Liu Che, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, was very famous in the Han Dynasty. Western countries and countries all know that there is a country in the east of China called the Han Dynasty, and the capital of the Han Dynasty is called Chang 'an. The name of the Silk Road is Chang 'an-Emei Corridor. Only this section is called the Silk Road, and others are extensions, including the Roman Empire and Japan. Luoyang hopes to be called the Silk Road. It can reapply for a Luoyang-Roman Empire Corridor. As long as WHC agrees, the following is a detailed statement.

The Roman Empire has been established for 2500 years, which is equivalent to the Eastern Zhou Dynasty in China. In 497, Mencius, at the age of 55, had no choice but to leave Lu and travel around the world for fourteen years. This is also the website of WHC about the material and cultural heritage of the Silk Road. Https://whc.unesco.org/en/list/1442 has been included in the list of "World Cultural Heritage". Web page translation. Last but not least, the starting point of Chang 'an-Emei Corridor is called Chang 'an, the Silk Road is called Chang 'an-Emei Corridor, and the rest are extension lines. When the Silk Road was clearly put forward, Xi 'an was right when he said that the capital of Henan was actually a trade route between Luoyang and the Roman Empire. This statement did not attract attention at first, and it did not have much popularity in China.

Conclusion The Belt and Road strategy was suddenly mentioned in a certain year, because Luoyang had to pass through Hanguguan, west of Rome, and then the key came! At that time, the network keyboard heroes were overwhelming and gradually sprayed to Luoyang City. The situation at that time was only described by a dog barking, and the people in Luoyang had no idea what had happened. Slowly, they realized that there was another dog in the west. In order to commemorate Zhang Qian's great contribution to the development of the Silk Road, UNESCO listed Zhang Qian's tomb as one of the seven historical and cultural heritages of the Shaanxi section of the Silk Road, located in Chenggu County, Shaanxi Province. This is an indisputable historical story. Who can deny it?

Luoyang was the capital of the Han Dynasty, and Ban Chao, a native of the Han Dynasty, was ordered to connect and rebuild the Silk Road, which was stopped by the war in 73 (the 16th year of Yongping in the Han Dynasty). Note that it is "repair" rather than "development". Ban Chao is 200 years behind Zhang Qian, 73-(- 139) = 265438+. There is no doubt that Ban Chao, a native of the Han Dynasty, was a well-known messenger of the Silk Road, but he only inherited the messenger of his predecessors, not the forerunner. At that time, Luoyang City only broadened, consolidated and developed the Silk Road developed by the predecessors of the Han Dynasty, which was enjoyed by the predecessors who planted trees. The Silk Road was located by German geologist Zou Mingfen when he inspected the cotton planting and silk sales market in Zhengzhou in Qing Dynasty. His research found that there was a trade route between Asia and Europe in the Qin Dynasty, and there were many funerary objects of the western regions in Fu Hao's tomb, the relic of No.5 Yinxu in Anyang, and also found in the tombs in the Spring and Autumn Period. Zhang Qian was not the first person to go to the Western Regions. So we can't judge by who arrived in the western regions first. The truly connected Silk Road was from Luoyang to the Roman Empire in the Western Han Dynasty. In fact, this is the first contact between China and the Roman Empire.
