The stage production, which premiered in Xinjiang a year ago, weaves a timeless journey through the golden sands of history, guiding viewers from the bustling trade routes of ancient Kuqa to the vibrant, modern life of the contemporary city. This narrative thread serves as a bridge, connecting the past with the present in a seamless journey through time.

The entire production is structured in chapters, and the first chapter, Echoes of the Silk Road, takes audiences on a historical journey through Kuqa's music and dance.
