The traditional Silk Road, starting from Chang'an, the ancient capital of China, reaches the Mediterranean Sea through Central Asian countries, Afghanistan, Iran, Iraq, Syria, etc., and ends in Rome, with a total length of 6,440 kilometers.
Zhang Qian of the Western Han Dynasty opened the "Northwest Silk Road", the official channel of the Western Regions, which was the "Steppe Silk Road" that went north to the Mongolian Plateau and then westward to the northern foot of the Tianshan Mountains into Central Asia. There is the rugged "Southwest Silk Road" from Chang'an to Chengdu to India.
There are also coastal cities such as Guangzhou, Quanzhou, Hangzhou, Yangzhou, etc., from the South Seas to the Arabian Sea, and even as far as the east coast of Africa.
The role of the Silk Roads
In terms of science and technology, China's four major inventions—papermaking, printing, gunpowder, and the compass—were transmitted to Western countries through the Silk Road. Western scientific knowledge such as mathematics, astronomy, geography, and chemistry also came to China with the ranks of merchants and cultural exchanges.
In terms of daily necessities, China exported fine silk, porcelain, tea, etc., to the West, while Persian silk fabrics, gold and silver ware, and other goods from various countries also entered China.
The famous figure who spread religious culture through the Silk Road was the Buddhist monk Xuanzang of the Tang Dynasty. In 627, Xuanzang, who was already familiar with Chinese Buddhism, wanted to study Buddhism more deeply and decided to study in India, the birthplace of Buddhism.

The overland Silk Road started from the capital Chang'an (now Xi'an), passed through Gansu and Xinjiang, reached Central Asia and West Asia, and connected the land passages of the Mediterranean countries. During the Eastern Han Dynasty, the starting point of the Silk Road was in Luoyang.
The "Maritime Silk Road" is mainly centered on the South China Sea, so it is also known as the South China Sea Silk Road. The Maritime Silk Road was formed in the Qin and Han dynasties, developed from the Three Kingdoms to the Sui Dynasty, flourished in the Tang and Song dynasties, and changed in the Ming and Qing dynasties, and is the oldest known maritime route.

Starting Point: Chang'an Ending Point: Rome.
The overland Silk Road originated in the Western Han Dynasty, starting from the capital Chang'an (now Xi'an), passing through Gansu and Xinjiang, to Central Asia and West Asia, and connecting the land passages of Mediterranean countries.
-
The starting point is Chang'an in the Western Han Dynasty, and the end point is Anxi and Daqin.
The route of the overland Silk Road started from Chang'an in the Western Han Dynasty, passing through the Hexi Corridor and reaching the famous Dunhuang.
However, from the beginning of Dunhuang, it is divided into two roads: the south road starts from Dunhuang, and then Loulan, Khotan, Shache, and Pamir reach Dayueshi and Anxi, and finally goes west to Tiaozhi and Daqin, while the north road starts from Dunhuang, passes through Jiaohe, Qiuzi, Shule, and Dawan and finally reaches Anxi and Daqin.
Significance: With the development of the times, the Silk Road has become a collective name for all political, economic and cultural exchanges between ancient China and the West. There is the "Northwest Silk Road", the official channel opened by Zhang Qian of the Western Han Dynasty in the Western Regions; There is the "Steppe Silk Road" that runs north to the Mongolian Plateau and then goes west to the northern foot of the Tianshan Mountains into Central Asia;
There is the rugged "Southwest Silk Road" from Chang'an to Chengdu to India. There are also coastal cities such as Guangzhou, Quanzhou, Hangzhou, Yangzhou, etc., from the South Seas to the Arabian Sea, and even as far as the east coast of Africa.

The starting point is generally very clear because the Silk Road originated in the Western Han Dynasty Zhang Qian's mission to the Western Regions, of course, he was only the beginning, the starting point is in Chang'an, today's Xi'an, Luoyang.
There are many theories about the end point, and the general scientific method is Rome in Italy and Istanbul in Turkey.

The overland Silk Road started from Chang'an in the Western Han Dynasty (Luoyang in the Eastern Han Dynasty) and passed through the Hexi Corridor to Dunhuang. From Dunhuang, it is divided into two roads: the south road from Dunhuang through Loulan, Khotan, Shache, through the green mountains of Pamir to Dayueshi, rest, to the west to Tiaozhi, Daqin; The north road goes from Dunhuang to Jiaohe, Qiuci and Shule, crosses the Green Mountains to Dawan, and goes west to Daqin via Anxi.
The "Silk Road" refers to the ancient commercial route that began in ancient China and connected Asia, Africa and Europe. The Silk Road in the narrow sense generally refers to the overland Silk Road. Broadly speaking, it is divided into the land Silk Road and the maritime Silk Road.
The "Overland Silk Road" is a land commercial passage connecting the hinterland of China and Europe, formed between the 2nd century BC and the 1st century AD, and is still in use until the 16th century, which is a major road for economic, political and cultural exchanges between the East and the West. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty sent Zhang Qian as an envoy to the Western Regions to form its basic arterial roads. It started from Chang'an in the Western Han Dynasty (Luoyang in the Eastern Han Dynasty) and went to Dunhuang through the Hexi Corridor.
From Dunhuang, it is divided into two roads: the south road from Dunhuang through Loulan, Khotan, Shache, through the green mountains of Pamir to Dayueshi, rest, to the west to Tiaozhi, Daqin; The north road goes from Dunhuang to Jiaohe, Qiuci and Shule, crosses the Green Mountains to Dawan, and goes west to Daqin via Anxi. Its original role was to transport silk produced in ancient China.
Therefore, when the German geographer Ferdinand Freiherr von Richthofen first named it the "Silk Road" in the 70s of the 19th century, it was widely accepted.
On June 22, 2014, the eastern section of the land Silk Road, "Silk Road: Road Network of the Chang'an-Tianshan Corridor", jointly declared by China, Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan, was successfully declared as a World Cultural Heritage Site, becoming the first project to be successfully declared a World Heritage Site through cross-border cooperation.

China's ancient land Silk Road is divided into three routes, north, and south, as follows:
1.North-Laos-China Rental Line: along the northern shores of the Aral Sea, the Caspian Sea, and the Black Sea, passing through Broken Leaves, Talas, Astrakhan and other places to Istanbul;
2.Middle line: From Kashgar, through the Ferghana Basin, Samarkand, Bukhara and so on to Mashhad, it joins the southern route;
3.Southern Route: From the Pamir Mountains, Peixu can enter Pakistan and India from Kashmir, and can also travel to Europe from Peshawar, Kabul, Mashhad, Baghdad, Damascus, etc.
The "Silk Road" refers to the ancient overland commercial routes that began in ancient China and connected Asia, Africa and Europe. The Silk Road in the narrow sense generally refers to the land Silk Road, and in a broad sense, it is divided into the Land Silk Road and the Maritime Silk Road;
The "Overland Silk Road" is a land commercial channel connecting the hinterland of Shizhao China and Europe, formed between the 2nd century BC and the 1st century AD, and is a major road for economic, political and cultural exchanges between the East and the West;
The "Maritime Silk Road" is a sea passage for traffic and cultural exchanges between ancient China and foreign countries, which is mainly centered on the South China Sea, formed in the Qin and Han dynasties, and developed from the Three Kingdoms to the Sui Dynasty.

Route of the Silk Road: Chang'an - Hexi Corridor - Dunhuang - Western Regions - Anxi - Daqin (Rome).
The overland Silk Road originated from the Western Han Dynasty (202-8 BC) when Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty sent Zhang Qian to the Western Regions to open up a land passage starting from the capital Chang'an (now Xi'an), passing through Gansu and Xinjiang, to Central Asia and West Asia, and connecting the Mediterranean countries.
During the Eastern Han Dynasty, the starting point of the Silk Road was in Luoyang. Its original role was to transport silk produced in ancient China. In 1877, the German geographer Richthofen named "the Silk Road" in his book "China", "from 114 BC to 127 AD, between China and Central Asia, China and India with silk ** as the medium of this Western Regions", this term was quickly accepted by the academic community and the public, and officially used.

On the way, the Silk Road started from Chang'an, the ancient capital of China, and passed through Afghanistan, Iran, Iraq, Syria, etc., and arrived in Rome.
Ask about ancient place names.
Answer: The Silk Road, which refers to the land passage opened by Zhang Qian's envoy to the Western Regions in the Western Han Dynasty, starting from Chang'an (now Xi'an), passing through Gansu and Xinjiang, to Central Asia and West Asia, and connecting the Mediterranean countries (this road is also known as the "Northwest Silk Road" to distinguish it from the other two transportation routes with the name of "Silk Road" in the future). Silk products were the most influential among the goods transported west by this road, hence the name.
From Shule to the west, cross the Green Ridge (present-day Pamir) to Dawan (present-day Ferghana). From there, they traveled west to Bactria (in present-day Afghanistan), Sogdia (in present-day Uzbekistan), Anxi (in present-day Iran), and as far as Lijing (also known as Lixuan, in Alexandria, Egypt) in Great Qin (eastern Roman Empire).

The ancient "Silk Road" had four routes.
1. If you take the Sogdiana from the west of the Pamirs, the southwest journey passes through the important commercial cities of Mulu, the old capital of Hechu, Aman, and the Hermitage Spin, that is, Daslo, from Sillo to the south of the Tigris River to reach Yuro and Tiaozhi, and to the west can reach Antioch, Palmyra, Damascus, and even Plough;
2. If you set off from Pishan, you will cross the suspension, pass through the Zobin and Wuyi Mountains, and then pass through Carmania and Persia, and also reach the Tiaozhi at the head of the Persian Gulf;
3. If you take the road further north, that is, from the north of the Tianshan Mountains through the Hezhong area west of Wusun and Dawan, you must also pass through Mulu, the eastern gateway to rest;
4. If you take the sea route, the sea route from the ports on the west coast of the South Asian subcontinent to the west through the Persian Gulf to Tiaozhi is much closer than the sea route from the Arabian Sea and the Red Sea to Daqin.

The Silk Road originally started from Chang'an in the east, traveled west along Weishui, crossed the Loess Plateau, and reached Dunhuang through the Hexi Corridor.
From Dunhuang to the west, it is divided into two roads: the south road goes out of Yangguan, along the south of the present-day Tarim Basin, the northern foot of Kunlun Mountain, through Guloulan, Jimo, Minfeng, Yutian, Hetian, Moyu, Pishan, Yecheng, Shache, to Kashgar; The north road exits Yumen Pass, along the northern edge of the Tarim Basin, the southern foot of the Tianshan Mountains, and passes through Turpan, Korla, Baicheng, Aksu, and Bachu to Kashgar.
After the north and south roads meet in Kashgar, continue west to the Pamir Plateau, which is the most difficult section of the road. It then passed through Afghanistan, Iran, and the countries of Central Asia, and then crossed the Mediterranean, and finally reached the end of the Silk Road, which was the capital of Great Qin, Rome, and Venice.
Later, a new northern road was opened, from Dunhuang through Hami, along the Junggar Basin north of the Tianshan Mountains, crossing the Ili River to the west to the ancient Roman Empire.

The Silk Road can generally be divided into three sections, and each section can be divided into three routes: northern, central and southern. Eastern section: from Chang'an to Yumen Pass and Yangguan. (Opened in the Han Dynasty).
Middle section: from the west of Yumen Pass and Yangguan to the Green Ridge. (Han Dynasty opened) western section: from the green ridge to the west through Central Asia, West Asia to Europe. I hope it can help you.

The route of the Silk Road was: Chang'an - Hexi Corridor - Dunhuang - Western Regions - Anxi - Great Qin (Rome). At the end of the Western Han Dynasty, it opened up from the Yumen Pass of Dunhuang to the north, passed through Yiwu (now Hami), Gaochangbi (in the present-day Turpan Basin) to Yuli, and traveled westward along the upper road.
By the time of the Tang Dynasty, there were two changes along the Silk Road: one was to open up a road from Yiwu to Puzihai (now Balikun) and west along the northern foot of the Tianshan Mountains to Central Asia; The other is the abandoned Yumen Pass, which passes through the passage between Loulan and Yuli.

The "Silk Road" refers to the ancient overland commercial routes that began in ancient China and connected Asia, Africa and Europe. The Silk Road in the narrow sense generally refers to the overland Silk Road. Broadly speaking, it is divided into the land Silk Road and the maritime Silk Road.
Route: The northern line from Chang'an to the Eastern Han Dynasty from Luoyang to Guanzhong along the Wei River to Yu County, through Wang County, over Liupan Mountain, along the Zuli River, in Jingyuan across the Yellow River to Guzang, the distance is shorter, along the way the supply conditions are poor, is the early route. The southern line crosses Longguan, Shangtai, Didao and Caohan along the Wei River from Chang'an, crosses the Yellow River from Yongjing, crosses Xining, and crosses the valley to Zhangye.
The middle line and the south line diverge in Shangqi, cross Longshan, go to Jincheng County, cross the Yellow River, trace the Zhuanglang River, and turn over the Wusheling Ridge to Guzang. Although the supply conditions of the southern route were good, the detour was long, so the central route later became the main trunk line. After the meeting of the north, south and central lines, from Zhangye to Dunhuang via Jiuquan and Guazhou, and then from Dunhuang to Lingling or Talas.
The Silk Road was a historically significant international passage that facilitated the exchange of civilizations between the East and the West. The Silk Road not only introduced papermaking out of China, but also introduced grapes, peppers, walnuts and other fruits, sapphires, glass products and other ornaments, Buddhism from Central Asia, and Buddhist scriptures translated and monasteries built by visiting monks from the Western Regions during the reign of Emperor Ming of the Han Dynasty. Since 119 BC Zhang Qian's mission to the Western Regions, it has gradually appeared. >>>More

The "Spice Road" was the main sea passage between Asia, Africa and Europe in ancient times. In the ninth century, Venetian merchants bought cloves, cinnamon, cardamom, pepper and other spices from the islands of Southeast Asia in Constantinople and resold them to Europe, reaping huge profits. After the Europeans discovered new sea routes in the fifteenth century, the Portuguese and the Dutch invaded the spice-producing areas and transported large quantities of spices into the European market through unequal exchange and direct plunder, reaping amazing profits. >>>More
