For centuries, the ancient Chinese did not move away from China. But 2000 years ago, they began to travel to new lands. they needed to find strong horses for their army. Overtime, these travellers started to trade silk in far-off places.
Silk is made from the thread Silkworms spin to make their cocoons. Women in ancient China wove this thread to make silk cloth. Silk in ancient China was used mainly to make clothes. It is still widely used today as a fabric for fine clothing. Rich Chinese women often wore shoes made of silk.
Silk looks very beautiful, so I know Silk is very high. But most women dream to wear Silk dress in their wedding. Me too!
