Zhangye is located in the northwest of China’s Gansu Province, in the middle section of the Hexi Corridor. Its name means “stretching the nation’s arms to reach the Western Regions,” and it has long been an important stronghold in the northwest region and a key stop along the ancient Silk Road as it entered the Hexi Corridor. With an average annual temperature of 6°C, the best time to visit is from June to September each year. On this historically significant international route, colorful silk, Chinese porcelain, and spices flowed continuously, making significant contributions to economic and cultural exchanges between the East and West in ancient times. Today, Tsinghua EMBA faculty and students are retracing the Silk Road to understand the ways of commerce and spread civilization.
