Experience
History's Greatest Journey

Whispers of a far land enter your ears. A land flowing with treasure
more numerous than the sands of the Taklamakan and where the legends
of China fills your mind with wonder. The Silk Roads beckon
adventure, and perhaps something much more fulfilling. You take the
step out to embark on a journey that surpasses the grandest of
dreams, but also the most perilous of trials. All ideas and
expectations are removed as you enter into far lands as a stranger.

 

In this interactive, choose-your-own-route across Eurasia, you assume
the role of a merchant or explorer. The journey begins in
Constantinople and from there the route diverges, and from the next
outpost it branches again. Every route may be different, but they all
lead to the Middle Kingdom - Hangzhou in eastern China.

 

 

Into the Silk Roads, you go.

About the Silk Roads

Silk Roads evoke glorious days of past, mirages of exotic locales,
and extraordinary tales, captivating explorers from Genghis Khan to
Marco Polo to even myself. These interconnected series of ancient
roads are the veins of the world where peoples, faiths, and countries
are intricately blended together. The Silk Roads are also the
passageway from East to West, and it is here where both sides of the
world dramatically clash to form a truly unique landscape where
innovations thrived. It is also here where civilizations and
religions have formed, setting the blueprint to our ever so complex
modern world. The Silk Roads are not just remote corners of the
globe, forgotten and unimportant. Rather, the Silk Roads are perhaps
the center of our complex globalization. The landscape of our planet
would look vastly different if merchants, nomads, nobles, and
explorers did not traverse the thousands of miles for hundreds of
years. It's perplexing how such an important part of history can be
so often overlooked and minimized.
