CGTN

Asia;China

The People's Republic of China (PRC) turns 75 this year, and what better way to celebrate the occasion than with a blast from the past? CGTN is soon launching The Gateway of Time, an interactive AR+AI product that visualizes Chinese people's homes from three distinct periods of the PRC. It will give a glimpse of how people's living conditions were in the early years of the PRC, how reform and opening-up policies transformed their lives in the decades that followed and what living in a Chinese home feels like today. But before you embark on this historical journey through space and time, let's get you ready with the first of our three short quizzes on life in China. This one tests your knowledge on the early years of the PRC. Answer away!
