The significance of the Silk Road:

1. The Silk Road is a window for China to know the world. After the Silk Road was formed, China's silk products began to appear in Europe and enjoyed a high reputation from then on. In the Roman Empire, China's silk products were even regarded as precious items, thus becoming a social fashion. The Confucian culture in China was formed at that time and began to spread to the world. Western culture also came to China along with the Silk Road at that time, and China and the world civilization began to blend with each other to enhance understanding.

2. The Silk Road is a technology channel: the opening of the Silk Road is also a technology circulation channel. At that time, China Han people's world-leading technologies, such as cast iron, canal opening and sinking technology, began to spread to the west along this channel, which made indelible contributions to the local development and played a decisive role in the local economic development.

3. The Silk Road is one of the greatest feats in China's ancient history: China has many world-famous feats, including the Great Wall, the Mausoleum of the First Qin Emperor, the Grand Canal and the Dunhuang Mogao Grottoes, which are widely circulated in the world. The Silk Road is also one of these feats. It represents the wisdom of the people of China and shows the vision and national personality of the Chinese nation to the world.
