During the Tang Dynasty, the silk trade was strong and reached unprecedented levels. Courier stations were set up along the main trading route in order to provide food and shelter for traveling traders and messengers. A registration system was set up and traders had to pay a tax in order to receive a road pass.
The Chinese exported silk fabrics, lacquerworks, ironware, bullion and medicinal materials. They used gold and silk in exchange for horses, mules, camels, hides, woolen products,gems, jades, corals, colored glazes, medkaments and spices.
Special guides and caravan heads were responsible for sections of the trading route. They also acted as diplomatic envoys at times.
