Welcome to Our History Blog!
We are researching on Zhang Qian a famous explorer and diplomat of China. Following his embassy and report in 138BCE, commercial relations between China and Central as well as Western Asia flourished, as many Chinese missions were sent throughout the end of the 2nd century BCE and the 1st century BCE, initiating the development of the Silk Road.
