Abstract
This article presents the results of an investigation based on the analysis of the aesthetics of museums created in cities that are part of the Silk Road. The approach to these museums is based on the observation of educational and patrimonial aspects, elements that characterize the essence of these institutions. UNESCO has been promoting, since 1988, actions related to the Silk Road, a commercial route now converted into a path of dialogue between different cultures. We have observed that each museum studied insists on those issues of local and national rank that characterize its idiosyncrasy. Each museum enhances the educational facets from the tradition of silk production, and also heritage issues to strengthen the characteristic features of each community. We have interviewed their managers, and observed their buildings and collections. We detected that, in spite of the international influence of the initiative, or precisely because of it, in each case studied it is decided to influence the local differential factors, giving priority to the aesthetic arguments of cultural identity. We examine the specific case of the Valencia Silk Museum, the most recent creation, but which houses the oldest institution.
