Golden Age · 618–907 AD
Tang 唐
Táng · 都城： Chang'an
The peak. Tang Chang'an was the largest, most cosmopolitan city on Earth — nearly a million people, including Sogdian, Persian and Arab merchant communities. The Silk Road's eastern terminus, the center of East Asian Buddhism, and the court that produced Li Bai, Du Fu and Wang Wei. Almost every Tang site you visit today — from the Big Wild Goose Pagoda to the Grand Tang Ever-Bright City — traces back to these 289 years.
