Introduction
Ancient City of Loulan
The world -famous ancient city of Loulan, situated to west of the Lop Nor, was the hub of communications in the Western Regions and occupied a very important position on the ancient Silk Road .
The Loulan State was established in 176 B.C. and fell in 630, existing for over 800 years .But the exact location of the Loulan City remained unknown for about 1,000 years. It was not until the beginning of this century that was accidentally discovered by a Uygur in Xinjiang. Thus the ruins of the thousand-year-sleeping ancient city came to be known again. Now the Loulan Site is listed as a major culture site under state protection. |
