This trade route focuses on the trade of silk, hence the name “ the Silk Road ” . As an international trade channel and a bridge of cultural exchanges, the Silk Road effectively improved the economic and cultural exchanges and development between the East and the West, exerting a profound impact on the progress of the world civilization. Nowadays, under the new historical circumstances, our country proposes the strategy of “ One Belt, One Road ” (namely the Silk Road Economic Belt and the 21 st-century Maritime Silk Road). The strategy of “ One Belt, One Road” focuses on cooperation and mutual benefits, emphasizing mutual benefits, win-win, as well as common development of the related countries. Once proposed, the strategy has received positive responses from the related countries along the road.
