Famous Polish Traveler Jacek Palkiewicz Visited the State Committee on Tourism of the Republic of Tatarstan

The traveler shared his plans. In the near future, he intends to refresh the legendary Great Silk Road as a phenomenon of the world's cultural legacy, having the impact on the development of civilizations. Its northern branch ran through a number of Russian regions. Under the patronage of UNESCO and with the support of the governments of many countries, the legend created by Marco Polo will be updated. This is the idea of a joint international tourist commodity under the Silk Road brand. In the spring of 2018, the automobile column will cross the path from the Pacific to Poland.

Russia has a direct relationship to this ancient route. It should be recalled that in the early Middle Ages the central Silk Road branched out in Merv. One direction went to the Middle East; the second one ran through the territory of today's Kazakhstan, to the lower Volga, where it crossed the Great Volga route, which has a significant role.
