ANSWERS

I think the Chang'an - Tian Shan Corridor is on the UNESCO World Heritage list because it is a place with incredible natural beauty and it reflects cultural change. I think it helped communication between people because the people that travelled along it brought news from the east to the west and from the west to the east in a way that hadn't been known before.
