Located in northwest China’s Gansu province, the ruins of ancient Suoyang City was newly added to UNESCO's list of World Cultural Heritages in 2014. Built in Han Dynasty (202BC-220AD), this border town prospered in Tang Dynasty (618-907). From 1405 to 1524, people of different ethnic groups lived here. Along with the close of Jiayuguan Pass of the Great Wall in 1524, Suoyang City was deserted gradually. (Chinanews/Liu Yutao)
