The Silk Roads: A Route and Planning Guide
The Silk Roads: A Route and Planning Guide

Traveler's guide through ancient interconnected trade routes.

If you're enthralled by the tapestry of history and culture that stitches together East and West, "The Silk Roads" is your compass. Paul Wilson not only charts the physical journey through diverse landscapes but also weaves in captivating tales of the regions and their historical significance. This book promises to be both a practical companion for adventurous travelers and a rich, narrative mosaic for armchair explorers fascinated by the crossroads of civilization.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

The Silk Road was never a single thread but an intricate web of trade routes – Silk Roads – linking Asia and Europe. This new practical guide helps travellers explore all these threads and covers Turkey, Syria, Iran, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, Pakistan, and China. It includes information on getting to the region from North America, Europe, and Australasia, how to travel by train, bus, or plane, trips for all budgets, what to see and where to go, full reviews of hotels and restaurants, a comprehensive chapter on the historical background of this most famous of all trade routes, and 50 maps and town plans. Adapted from Silk Route by Rail, which was shortlisted for the Thomas Cook Guide Book of the Year Awards, it covers more countries than other Silk Road guides.
