一、The special representativeness of Chang'an

Chang'an is the ancient capital of China and an excellent representative city of Oriental civilization. It condenses the history of Oriental culture for thousands of years, and constantly glows with youth.

In the ancient capital of the world, the status of Chang'an is indisputable. She was in a long history. They are the peaks of human civilization. They are the centers of human trade. They are important driving forces for human development.

The eastern civilization represented by Chang'an is shining brightly. It has created unique human achievements, not only in terms of culture, but also in science and technology, as well as in terms of great productivity. At the same time, it has also communicated the extensive connection between the ancient capitals of all mankind.

It is worth mentioning the ancient architectural complex of Chang'an. He has created a magnificent history of human civilization and is an outstanding representative of Oriental culture. It is also a high level of science and technology.

Meanwhile. Chang'an was an important node in the ancient Silk Road. Some people say it is the starting point. It is one of the most prosperous cities on the ancient Silk Road and an important leading city on the silk road. It plays an important role in the extension and development of the ancient Silk Road. It can be said that without Chang'an, there would be no ancient Silk Road.

 

二、The special representation of Rome.

三、The Dialogue between Chang'an and Rome must be extraordinary.

As the two representative one, one belt, one road forward, Changan and Rome are advancing together to promote the harmonious development of the two sides and promote further cooperation between the Asian and European countries.

If these two cities with typical significance in the world have a dialogue, they will fully represent the traditional exchange and cooperation between eastern and Western cultures. At the same time one belt, one road, the future will be deeply influenced by the dialogue between the two.

The dialogue between the two cities will not only be very conducive to the cultural exchanges between the East and the west, but also the cultural exchanges between the two cities, so as to promote mutual understanding between different regions of the society, so that people can find common interests and common development goals. So as to form the power to jointly promote social development.

At the same time, the dialogue between Chang'an and Rome will also be conducive to the growth of the young generation. Because young people often lack of historical understanding of such historical dialogues. They are not very clear about the past of the two ancient cities and their profound details. Therefore, through dialogue, the youth of the two places should have a better understanding of the history, look forward to the future, form a consensus and work together.

Therefore, the dialogue between Chang'an and Rome is bound to be an extraordinary one. We look forward to its success and sincerely wish it fruitful results.
