Travelling the Silk Road: From London to Beijing - a talk

 

Over a period of four months in 2019, I travelled 40,000km overland by car, bus, train, ferry, horse and camel from London to Beijing traversing sixteen countries.

In this talk, I share my experiences of the varied people, places and cultures I encountered and speak about the work of the Aga Khan Development Network along this most celebrated of trade routes.

‘The Silk Road: A Living History’ exhibition is presented by the Aga Khan Foundation and kindly supported by King’s Cross and Wild Frontiers.
