Chan Ch"ien, the first known Chinese traveler to make contact with the Central Asian tribes.In 138 B.C., the imperial court of the Han Dynasty sent Zhang Qian to the Western Regions as an envoy in an attempt to forge alliances which would stop raids by the Xiongnu on the dynasty’s borders.Later came up with the idea to expand the silk trade to include these lesser tribes and therefore forge alliances with these Central Asian nomads. Because of this idea, the Silk Road was born.the route grew with the rise of the Roman Empire because the Chinese initially gave silk to the Roman-Asian governments as gifts.
The 7000 mile route spanned China, Central Asia, Northern India, and the Parthian and Roman Empires. It connected the Yellow River Valley to the Mediterranean Sea and passed through places such as Chinese cities Kansu and Sinkiang and present-day countries Iran, Iraq and Syria.

絲綢之路是古中國文化中最著名的的貿易路線，它起源於漢朝（202BC-AD220）它是古中國跟亞洲其它國家的貿易樞紐，主要連線長安（現今的西安）
眾所皆知,張騫是第一個與中亞其它部落的華人.公元前138年，為擊退匈奴對漢朝邊境地區的劫掠，漢朝派遣張騫出使西域。後來慢慢擴大了與中亞小部落之間絲綢貿易,與中亞遊牧部落結盟.鑑於此想法,絲綢之種誕生了,並在羅馬帝國時期漸漸擴張,因為在那個時期,中國會將絲綢作為禮物贈送給羅馬人和亞洲人.後來..絲綢之間慢慢擴張到7000英里,涉及中國,中亞,印度北部,帕提亞(伊朗東北部古國),羅馬帝國.它連線黃河流域和地中海,途徑:中國甘肅,新疆和現今的伊朗,伊拉克和敘利亞.
