The Fourth Silk Cities International Conference:

Intangible Heritage, Cities and Communities

along the Silk Roads and beyond...                    Tunis, Tunisia, 4 - 6 March 2024

Interactive Then & Now is an interactive digital project showcasing a selection of cultural heritage from countries along the Silk Roads. It raises awareness about forgotten or inaccessible treasures on a global scale. Through a playful approach to digital preservation, viewers can switch between past and current states of cultural heritage.

Bayt Wakil, the newest in the series is now released! This architecturally valued building in the residential fabric of Aleppo, Syria, during its life has went through some drastic changes, serving as residence, hospice and an orphanage, and a hotel and a restaurant prior to the Syrian conflict.
