Traders in the far east used the Silk Road to transport their goods.The Silk Road bought Chinese goods and then sold them to traders on the way to Rome.
The distance along the Silk Road from Chang'an (modern Xi'an) to Dunhuang is approximately 1,000 kilometers (620 miles). From Dunhuang to Samarkand (the historical name you mentioned as "Marakanda"), it is around 2,500 kilometers (1,553 miles). Continuing from Samarkand to Antioch, the distance is roughly 1,800 kilometers (1,118 miles), and finally, from Antioch to Rome, it is about 1,800 kilometers (1,118 miles) as well. In total, this journey spans approximately 7,100 kilometers (4,400 miles).

No it's not
For example, I bought a silk scarf for 5$ in Thailand.
Paris was not part of the silk road the last stop in the Silk Road was Rome.
Silk was expensive in Rome along the Silk Road due to its rarity and the labor-intensive process required for its production. The silk trade involved long-distance transportation from China, where silk was produced exclusively, making it a luxury item. Additionally, the high demand for silk among the elite in Rome further drove up its price, as it symbolized wealth and status. The intricate weaving techniques and the delicate nature of silk also contributed to its costliness.
The trade route that connected China to Rome was called the Silk Road.
It is not known. The first account of silk in Rome was in the 1st century AD by Pliny the Elder (23-79 BC) who described silk dresses which allowed women 'to be dressed but nude' and speculated that silk came from 'the hair of sea-sheep' or from trees. It was said that Julius Caesar (100-44 BC) had silk curtains. Silk was known in Greece and Judea in the 4th century BC. The Persians bought silk from the Chinese. Large scale use of the silk Road for trade begun in the 1st century AD. This is also the period when the Romans conquered Turkey and Syria, which were terminals of the Silk Road on the eastern shores of the Mediterranean. One can speculate that silk reached Rome in the 2nd or 1st century BC.
