Long long ago, it is said that the Silk Road, a long way, on which people traveled to see many kinds of history, culture, and prosperity, led from China, to Persia and further to Rome.

The figure of a caravan crossing the desolate dessert looks like an illusion of people travelling to seek for a beautiful faraway city. The music expresses such a scene poetically and sentimentally as it is in a dream.
