Our Journey to The Spiritual Silk Road
In the ancient world, the city of Dunhuang connected the silk road between the East and West worlds, which symbolized material prosperity. But, Dunhuang is also revered for it’s high cultural/spiritual achievements, like the Mogao Caves. The combination of these two aspects, the material and the spiritual, has made Dunhuang an immortal symbol of Chinese civilization, enduring in the long history of China.
The Inner Mountain aims to mirror the story of ancient Dunhuang.
In the last two decades we have succeeded in building a digital silk road as DHgate, connecting online buyers and sellers all over the world. Now we seek to echo the spiritual fulfillment of ancient Dunhuang by establishing our own women’s empowerment community — helping cultivate spiritual prosperity on the basis of material success.
The technology boom has been great, but it has not been without challenges. We have established a means for material success using technology through DHgate and now we want to pursue spiritual success by establishing a community to allow women to help each other solve challenges and find fulfillment.
