万里茶道:清代中俄茶叶贸易与北方草原丝绸之路研究

Tea Road with 10,000 Miles:The Sino-Russian Tea Trade and the Northern Grassland Silk Road in the Qing Dynasty

丝绸之路是古代中国与世界交往的重要通道,北方草原丝绸之路是其中的一条重要线路。有清一代,茶叶是中国出口俄国的大宗商品之一种,在北方草原丝绸之路上的经济往来活动中扮演着越来越重要的角色。在清代,以茶叶贸易为核心形成了一条重要的国际商道——万里茶道。万里茶道也成为此时期北方草原丝绸之路发展的新阶段,极大地推动了清代中国与俄国等周边国家及地区之间的交流互动。时至今日,在国家发出"一带一路"倡议的时代背景下,万里茶道研究无疑具有重要的学术价值与现实借鉴意义。

The Silk Road was an important way between ancient China and the the world,and the northern grassland silk road was one of the key routes.In the Qing Dynasty,tea played an increasing role in the economic activities along the silk road on the northern steppes.It was one of the major commodities exported by China to Russia and formed an important international trade route—"Wan Li Cha Dao"(Tea Road with 10,000 miles)."Wan Li Cha Dao"also became a new stage in the development of the Silk Road on the northern grassland at this period,which greatly promoted the exchanges and interactions between China and its neighboring countries.Even today,under the background of"the Belt and Road"initiative proposed by the state,the study of"Wan Li Cha Dao"undoubtedly has important historical research and practical reference significance.
