ZHENGZHOU, Sept. 21 (Xinhua) -- Archaeologists have unearthed a 2.5-km-long avenue dating back nearly 2,000 years on the site of the ancient capital of Luoyang in central China's Henan Province.
The road, about 34 meters wide, was a major east-west avenue extending between the relic sites of Ximingmen and Qingyangmen in the southern part of Luoyang. The avenue was built in the Eastern Han Dynasty (25-220) and continued in use until the Northern Wei Dynasty (386-534), a period of around 500 years.
