The Silk Road was the ancient form of the information super highway and was an important link between the eastern and western cultures. People not only traded goods for economic benefit; they also traded knowledge, ideas and religions.

Today, the Silk Road is a tourist destination and is being revived. There are many historical sites along the route that need to be preserved. The preservation of these sites can only be done with the collaboration of experts from around the world; preservation and tourism bring economic benefit.

The similarities between ancient and modern are the need for the exchange of knowledge and ideas, people helping each other for economic benefit, and the promotion of ties between cultures, countries and people.

The Silk Road is a road where other people from foreign countries come to different parts of China to trade Chinese people their goods for silk. The people usually traded lumber, horses and other things the Chinese people needed for silk. The silk was the product that gave the Silk Road its name. It began near the Han capital Chang'an and continued through deserts and high plains of central Asia until it finally ended at the shores of the Mediterranean Sea. The travelers that went on the Silk Road usually had obstacles like bandits, torrential rainstorms, or, if they come from the north, the Gobi desert. The traders usually traveled in caravans, or groups of traders. The traders from far away would deliver China's products to far places, so China's product became almost worldwide in the time of the Silk Road.

It impacted China because the Chinese could learn religion, arts and cultures from other countries. They also made China turn into more cities and towns. They traded not only silk and other goods, but they also exchange ideas from different religions and different cultures so each person would understand each other's beliefs. They also learned from each other how to use different materials to make different shapes and items. The cultures they learned from each other was usually not intentional. The people started to talk about their cultures and other people heard and started to spread it around their own countries as well. Many artistic teachings were taught along the Silk Road, especially through the Central Asia, where, Iranian, Indian and Chinese art was able to spread to different countries. Zoroastrianism, Buddhism, Christianity, Islam and other religions taught across Europe, Asia, and China specifically.

The Silk Road is an extensive interconnected network of trade routes across the Asian continent connecting East, South, and Western Asia with the Mediterranean world, as well as North and Northeast Africa and Europe. Despite the great distance between Asia and Europe, the two regions had contact prior to 1 A.D. Traders, pilgrims, and warriors all traveled along the Silk Road from Rome and Syria in the west to as far as China in the east. Culture spread through interaction among merchants, travelers, and conquerors. The most profound influences of all were those brought by conquering civilizations. To understand the history of cultural diffusion, one must understand the major empires of the Silk Road and the effects that they had on the exchange and spread of culture. Trade on the Silk Road flourished during three major time periods.

The Arab merchants who transported silks and spices across the hills, mountains and vast deserts in camel trains or caravans, to the Mediterranean ports of the Middle East. The accidental discovery of the Americas by ambitious and adventurous Europeans happened because European traders wanted to bypass the Arabian middlemen, and deal directly with the Far Eastern producers in China, Japan, etc. to reduce transportation costs and increase their own profitability tremendously.

In both areas, Mongol rule at first disrupted economies before facilitating trade on a large scale. After the Mongols conquer a territory, generally, there is an increase in trade in that territory because the Mongols make it easier, safer, and cheaper for merchants to travel, thus boosting the economies of conquered territories. When conquering, the Mongols devastated the economy of Persia more than it devasted the economy of China. In Persia, the Mongols destroyed the Persian irrigation systems, thus causing a great decline in ecnomic productivity. In China, nothing so devastating happened, as the economy of China was already in decline by the time of Mongol expansion.
