YANG Fan from NGO called CECP (China Endangered Culture Protectors) and Silvan Hagenbrock, urbanist and editor of CITYMAKERS, travelled together from Xi’an to Taiyuan tracing cultural relics (=wenwu) sites. Why go to all these places? Because there’s no other way for them to find evidence and to preserve knowledge of China’s cultural heritage destiny.
Why I am on the Road? I am tracing something. Something will be changed very soon. Something will disappear soon. Something will never come back. I am racing against the time. This is why I am driving fast. So, isn’t it a good reason to travel?
