It is said that the openness of the Tang Dynasty was amazing, so how open was the Tang Dynasty?

The first is the degree of opening up in the Tang Dynasty. At that time, Chang 'an, the capital of the Tang Dynasty, almost gathered people of different colors and races in the world, and was the most internationalized city in the world at that time. In the population of Chang 'an, you can find Japanese and Koreans, and countless European beauties with blond hair and blue eyes. Besides these people of different races, there are actually many different religions in Chang 'an, such as Buddhism, Christianity, Manichaeism, Judaism, Islam and so on. According to statistics, during the Tang Dezong period, there were almost more than 4,000 foreigners working and studying in Chang 'an, including foreigners who were officials in the Tang Dynasty.

For example, Silla Cui Zhiyuan, who went to the shogunate as the governor, Pirooz III, the Persian prince who worshipped General Zuo Weiwei, Ma Lu, the protector of Annan, and Bai Xiaode, the conference semifinals who was named as the king of Changhua County, etc. Even now, it is rare for foreigners to be an official in their own country, let alone an official with one person and more than ten thousand people, such as the Prime Minister. It can be seen how open the Tang Dynasty was. Which man in this Tang Dynasty is not full of passion and yearning?

Secondly, the complexity of the nation will naturally bring the demand for multiculturalism. There were famous poets such as Li Bai and Du Fu in the Tang Dynasty, including poetry, music, calligraphy and painting. Yan Zhenqing and Liu Gongyuan are calligraphers, Wu Daozi is a genius in painting, and Li Guinian is a leading musician. It can be said that multi-ethnic groups will inevitably bring about the opening of culture, and the diversified cultural road will certainly attract multi-ethnic people to live. This is a mutual process.

The other is the aspect of life that makes women cry. It was more natural for women in the Tang Dynasty to wear topless clothes with bare shoulders. It can be seen from this that the constraints on women in the Tang Dynasty were relatively open. After the Ming and Qing Dynasties, women could only be widowed and spend the rest of their lives after their husbands died. Unlike the Tang Dynasty, women in the Tang Dynasty remarried the most. Ordinary people and court princesses will get married two or three times in their lives. This is still difficult for many people to accept.
