The western region refers to the west of Yumenguan and Yangguan, that is, Xinjiang and beyond, and belongs to the temperate continental climate.

Zhang Qian has opened up the famous "Silk Road" in history. The opening of the Silk Road promoted the economic and cultural exchanges between China and the West and played a positive role in promoting the prosperity of the Han Dynasty. This Silk Road is still an important channel for communication between China and the West, and it still plays an important role in China's foreign economic and cultural exchanges.

The route of the Silk Road: from Chang 'an to Hexi Corridor, it is divided into north and south roads. South Road starts from Yangguan (now southwest of Dunhuang, Gansu Province) to the west, passes through Shanshan (now near Robnor), along the northern foot of Kunlun Mountain, passes through Khotan (now Hotan), Dongsha and Puli (now Tashkurgan), crosses Qingji and reaches Da Yue. The North Road runs westward from Yumenguan (now northwest of Dunhuang), passes through Che's Guo Qian (now near Turpan), travels westward along the southern foot of Tianshan Mountain, passes through Yanqi and Shule, crosses Qingji and reaches Dawan. Then go north and south to Kangju and Chae Yeon; Go southwest to Da Yue, rest in peace. Silk is the most transported commodity on this trans-Eurasian road, so it is called "Silk Road" or "Silk Road".
