- The Mighty Silk Road! As seen from its distant origins right up until today! Allow me to introduce Kevin MacFarland and his family from the exploration website www.intofarlands.com . Please go visit his site and buy his fancy Silk Road Map at www.kickstarter.com/projects/... to further fund his explorations!
He has done what many of us have only dreamed of doing, taking the wide Asian continent on its own terms and retracing the myriad Silk Routes between China's Pacific coast to the markets of Turkey. From the deadly Taklamakan Desert to the Grand Canal of Huangzhou and the bazaars of Jordan, this family with a toddler and baby have been traveling these regions for years.
The Silk Road is one of the great wonders of the world. Put it on the list! For over 1500 years it formed a backbone of cultural, genetic, and even disease transmission across Eurasia. Focusing on a few key figures such as Tong Yabghu, Qaghan of the 7th century Göktürks and Zhang Qian, emissary and explorer of the Han Dynasty, this video is a departure from our normal style. It includes not only our documentary style but also the enthralling experiences of Kevin's own narration and interviews.
To take a long look at the Silk Road with us, please watch the video and take a journey over Into Far Lands! www.intofarlands.com

Advantageous timing
i cant tell you how IMPRESSED i am with Kevin and his family. i'm 71 years of age and have traveled nearly 3 circumnavigations of our planet, most of it on the back of various motorcycles, but kevin's taking to the road with kids in toe absolutely AMAZES me, WOW!!
Amazing life he and his family have achieved. And to still be young enough to do more. Congratulations on such a bountiful achievement.
Incredible share, it was so interesting! And to think i shy away from talking my toddler to the store.
One of my favorite subjects by my favorite CZcams Channel!!!
Oh who else spent the entire interview thinking Nick would have loved to go on this adventure. I loved this style of interview and documentary. Very well done. Good job team!
Yes, that's a sad thought.
Congratulations to his wife for being pregnant and having two children through this whole process and journey! Well done!
Sending love to your wife, children, and yourself 🎉🎉

Antiquities! Silk Road!
Also tell Indo-Scythians (also called Indo-Sakas) were a group of nomadic people of Iranic Scythian origin who migrated from Central Asia southward into the northwestern Indian subcontinent.
The migrations persisted from the middle of the second century BCE to the fourth century CE.
The Saka settled in Drangiana, a region of southern Afghanistan, western Pakistan and southern Iran which was then named Sakastan or Sistan. The mixed Scythian hordes who migrated to Drangiana and the surrounding regions later spread into north and south-west India via the lower Indus valley. They spread into Sovira, Gujarat, Rajasthan and north India, including kingdoms on the Indian mainland.
"Full-time, part time, deep-joy of a full moon in the scintilatelly, heavenly dangely fold." A direct quote from British comedian Stanley Unwin, and it made as much sense as anything you just said.
Oh, the map scroll! I love it
At 21:14 is that a Manichaen art piece? I feel Manichaeism along the Silk Road is a very understudied topic that I would love to learn more about.

East Asians The Chinese more spot or dotted on the Han Chinese were in many ways on top when it came to tech with gunpowder, explosives, maps, compasses, charts, posters, papers, repeated crossbows, silk uniforms, and calanders more so then North Western Europe yeah.
Be a child of God and obey The Call to Repentance. Seek forgiveness for your sins, or perish in the eternal hell. Seek the ESV Bible, and live the scriptures.
Patience is key!
