The route of the Maritime Silk Road

The routes of the Maritime Silk Road are divided into the East China Sea route and the South China Sea route.

1, East China Sea route: The East China Sea route mainly starts from the Shandong Peninsula and the coastal areas of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, passes through the Japanese archipelago, and reaches the Korean Peninsula and Japan. This route is mainly based on Sino-Japanese trade, and also involves some South Korean and Russian ports.

2. South China Sea route: The South China Sea route mainly starts from China, Guangdong, Fujian, Zhejiang and other areas, passes through the South China Sea, Malacca Strait and other sea areas, and reaches Southeast Asia, South Asia and the Middle East. This route is dominated by China's foreign trade, involving the transportation of a large number of materials such as oil, natural gas and agricultural products.

3. Maritime Silk Road, also known as "Maritime Ceramics Road" and "Maritime Spice Road", was first proposed by French orientalist Javert in 19 13.
