Historians, was the Silk Road easily navigable for travelers? There are accounts of Chinese and other Easterners traveling overland on the Silk Road to visit Western Empires and vice versa. Was the Silk Road an easily followed route? I know that it wasn't an actual road like a Roman road would be. For an ancient tourist traveling along it would it be very difficult follow?
This is not an answerable question because the Silk Road never existed. There never was a singular, marked route called the 'Silk Road' at any point in history.
