The Silk Road is a historically important international trade route between China and the Mediterranean, opened up by Zhang Qian during Han Dynasty with a history of about 1,600 years. The Road begins at Xian, then by way of the Hexi Corridor, and it reaches Dunhuang, where it divides into three, the Southern Route, Central Route and Northern Route, all of which spread over the Xinjiang Province, and then they extend as far as India and Rome. The places of cultural and natural interests include the well-known Mogao Caves (Mogao Grottoes) in Dunhuang, the bustling Sunday Bazzar in Kashgar and exotic customs in Xinjiang and much more. Nowadays, more and more adventurers turn to the Silk Road to explore the in-depth adventure.
