The caravans and trade networks on the Silk Road

Caravans and trade networks along the Silk Road served as vital links for ancient East-West exchanges. Caravans were large in scale, with diverse membership and unique travel methods. Trade routes were extensive, with the Eastern, Middle, and Western routes intertwining to form a network, with key node cities such as Dunhuang and Samarkand becoming trade hubs. Goods such as silk, spices, jewels, and tea occupied an important position in East-West trade, facilitating economic and cultural exchanges.
