Hey everyone! Ever wondered how ancient creativity merges with modern innovation? The iconic Tang dynasty architecture is still echoing through Japan’s design landscape, and its influence is more alive than ever at Expo 2025 in Osaka. 🏯
The Tang Dynasty (618-907) is celebrated as one of the world’s three major architectural traditions. Known for its exposed timber frames, vibrant colors, and perfect balance between beams and columns, its design principles have lit up landmarks like the Horyuji Temple in Japan.
Now, CGTN is taking you on a digital journey with its immersive virtual exhibition, "Tang Architecture: Building Timeless Glory." This multimedia experience offers an interactive tour through key sections such as Building Design, Palace Complex, and Urban Planning. Whether you're chilling at home or on the go, you can explore ancient Chang'an’s grandeur directly on your mobile device. 📱🎨
In a recent session in Tokyo, leading minds like Professor George Kunihiro and Professor Nobuo Aoki shared fresh insights into how the Tang dynasty’s art and engineering expertise influenced Japanese construction methods. They discussed how early Japanese envoys adopted cutting-edge techniques during their visits to majestic Chinese cities, eventually blending them with local innovations – like adjusting wooden structures to suit Japan’s humid climate by using raised stone platforms.
These discussions not only highlight a rich legacy of cultural exchange but also reveal how timeless design principles can spark modern creativity. Expo 2025 promises to be a meeting point for history, technology, and art – a perfect blend for our tech-savvy and curious generation. 💡✨
So, if you love discovering the stories behind timeless designs and enjoy interactive tech experiences, mark your calendar and get ready to dive into the world where history meets modern artistry!
