The role of Wakhan Road in commercial relations between Iran and China (From the 1st up to 8th Century A.H)

The main branch of the Silk Road, of which Constantinople and Chang-an were the two ends, had many secondary intersecting and parallel branches that have stayed in ignorance so far.

description The main branch of the Silk Road, of which Constantinople and Chang-an were the two ends, had many secondary intersecting and parallel branches that have stayed in ignorance so far. At the threshold of entrance to Transoxania, in Amul, the Great route of Khorasan had been divided to two separate branches, Jungharia road and Wakhan Road. Jungharia road would enter China through Soghd and Farghana Valley, but Wakhan Road kept its way along Oxus length up to river’s springhead in Wakhan Valley and this spot was the entrance of China for that road. This survey aims at studying Wakhan Road's geography and trade. The Inquiry organized on Islamic historic and geographic books between the third up to eighth centuries, itineraries of foreign travelers like Hieun Tseang and Marco Polo and contemporary archeological findings. Wakhan road not only covered trade in Marv quarter, Balkh quarter, Chaghanian and Ghobadian regions, Khottalan region, Badakhshan region and Wakhan region but also created a vast commercial web through all its length, from Amul to Khotan.
