The Old Silk Road is where Sino-foreign trade and cultural exchanges first occurred. It is where eastern and western traders met and their cultures overlapped, as reflected in Dunhuang’s Mogao Grotto murals. Zhang Qian’s journey as envoy to the Western Regions and Marco Polo’s entry into China are also aspects of the road’s fascinating history. The book describes the rise and fall of the Old Silk Road through stories and pictures of precious historical data, and describes how cultural intercourse between China and countries in Central Asia and Western Asia evolved. This 200-page book comprises 100,000 Chinese characters and 100 photographs.
