The Old Silk Route or Silk Road which passes through East Sikkim is a part of the ancient network of trade routes that connected China to India. This route passed through Lhasa, Nathu La, and Jelep La which finally reached the port of Tamralipta (present Tamluk in West Bengal) from where it took to the sea and reached the far east. This Ancient Silk Route was discovered by traders as early as the First Century AD. Today this route is popular for travel and tourism activities.
