This motorcycle adventure will discover the TEA-HORSE ROAD where “Few people have realized how vast and unprecedented this sudden expansion of caravan traffic between India and China was\, or how important. It was a unique and spectacular phenomenon. No complete story has yet been written about it\, but it will always live in my memory as one of the great adventures of mankind. Moreover\, it demonstrated to the world very convincingly that\, should all modern means of communication and transportation be destroyed by some atomic cataclysm\, the humble horse\, man’s oldest friend\, is ever ready to forge again a link between scattered peoples and nations [Goullart 1955: 88].” To day we EXPLORE THE TEA-HORSE ROAD on the “IRON-HORSE”. Riding a motorcycle is the best way to learn about this historical road. Wheeling from Chengdu the capital of Sichuan Province\, (also the Southern Silk Road) will take you deeply to mountaineer’s custom and cultures. There are more than twenty different ethnic groups to be found along the route. Some famous old towns and villages which once were key stations and markets of the Tea and Horse Caravan Road have been listed among the most important international sites for historic preservation. For example\, the Lijiang\, where the Naxi people form the majority of inhabitants\, was been designated as a world cultural heritage site by UNESCO in 1997. In 2002\, Sidengjie village\, Shaxi Township in Yunnan\, was listed as a “protected world architectural heritage site” by the World Architecture Foundation. Moreover\, the Tea and Horse Road continues to be a sacred road for many people. The different religions along the road include\, for example\, the white\, yellow and red sects of Tibetan Buddhism\; the Bon religion of pre-Buddhism in Tibet\; the Dongba religion of the Naxi people which combines Bon\, Buddhism and its own animism\; Han Buddhism and Taoism\, as well as the Hinayana belief of the Dai people\, and the Benzhu (local gods and goddess) worship of the Bai people. Along the caravan road\, there are many sacred mountains belonging to the different ethnic groups. For example\, Kawagebo Snow Mountain [Meiliexuashan] (6740 m)\, near Yubeng in northern Yunnan\, is one of the most famous sacred mountains of the Tibetan people. Every year many pilgrims from Sichuan\, Yunnan\, Tibet\, Qinghai\, and Gansu come there to worship and circumambulate the mountain with their tents\, sheep and horses to ask for blessings from the mountain god. Pilgrims still travel annually to Lhasa to pay their respect to the deities of Buddhism\, often still “measuring the road” by prostrating their bodies along its length. The road these pilgrims follow is the Tea and Horse Caravan Road. In the past\, young monks often shared the road with the caravans when traveling to Lhasa to carry on their studies and to advance their careers.

We will start off with a short talk on: ” 3D Virtual Reality Technology for Cultural Heritage: More than computer games” Speaker: Karina Rodriguez Echavarria\, Research Fellow\, University of Brighton. The use of 3D technology for Cultural Heritage is becoming increasingly popular. Nevertheless\, there is still a lack of understanding of its potential and how to use it in order to enhance the documentation\, research and communication of Cultural Heritage. Hence\, many people still refer this technology mainly to “computer games” without considering other prospective uses. This presentation will describe 3D Virtual Reality technology in a friendly way. It will also encourage discussion on ways in which this technology can contribute to the heritage sector as well as support and challenge visitors’ interpretation of the heritage displayed in museums and cultural sites. There is no bar\, but you can bring your own drinks. So feel free to bring drinks for yourself and to share!
