From London to Beijing on the old Silk Road

In London, the Silk Road, an open-air photography exhibition by the Aga Khan Foundation (AKF) UK's Head of Communications Christopher Wilton-Steer, captures images of trade, of peoples, and of empires long fallen through a series of stunning photographs. Christopher travelled along the historic trade route that was once known as the Silk Road. The exhibition is presented by the AKF and refers to an ancient trade route connecting the Western world with the Middle East and Asia. The free exhibition runs until 16 June.
