The Silk Road contributed to the long process of exchanges between ancient China and the outside world, and among the four large-scale trading products of silk, porcelain, tea and horses in circulation, the longest trading chain was silk. Among all regions and ethnic groups, the dialogue and exchanges and mutual learning among civilizations using silk as the medium have endured for thousands of years and formed an international silk culture of their own beauty, beauty and commonality.
