打开地图，只要稍作留意便会发现，在中国西北部，一片辽阔的大地被标为新疆。在相当长的一个历史阶段中，这片辽阔的区域，是中国内地省区与中亚、西亚、南亚以及欧洲各国相交往的主要交通线，是中国西出国门，与世界连接的通道。正是这一特殊的地理位置，赋予了新疆历史悠久而色彩斑斓、发展曲折而富于传奇、丰富而又多彩的特点。本书集中介绍了这被誉为丝绸之路的历史，多幅的画图，更生动的描绘出当时的辉煌，极具参考研究价值。书中自附新疆文物景点示意图，让你更好的了解这个神秘而富有色彩之路。（When opening a map and staring at it for a while, you will notice a vast land named Xinjiang in the northwest of China. In a comparatively long period of China's history, this land, which is also the northwestern gate of China and the channel to connect the country to the world, was the main inland route for this country to keep in contact with Central Asia, West Asia, South Asia and Europe.It was the unique location that brought this history-honoured, wonderful province development, twists, diversity and legends. This book focuses on the history of the Silk Road, vividly describes the prosperity at that time with pictures, and therefore is a valuable reference. In addition, this book also offers a map of spots of cultural relics to shed more light on this mysterious and colourful road.）
