About This Novel
Inspired by the Nordensköld expedition, Swedish explorer Sven Hedin embarked on his first trip to Asia in the summer of 1885, from Russian Central Asia to Persia, and gradually towards the heart of Asia. Five years later, he followed a camel team from a small town in eastern Russia to Kashgar, an important border town in China. This trip made him have an indissoluble bond with China's Xinjiang and Tibet regions. Three years later, Hedin once again visited Central Asia for an expedition, focusing on the Tarim region, with a total distance of 10,498 kilometers. After that, he went deep into the western regions of China many times to fight against the barren mountains and rivers, trying to climb the "Father of Icebergs" Muztagh Peak, and challenge the "Place of Death" Taklimakan Desert. Among them, the most eye-catching achievements were the discovery of the ancient city of Loulan and the redefinition of the location of Lop Nur.
